Homage to a firing squad

Sinopse

"On a rain-drenched night at the close of the Spanish Civil war, four young men find themselves in a decrepit car on the Tibidabo Road, charged with the task of assassinating the politician Don Rojo. At the Rojo Hacienda, the world-weary politician lies awake, troubled by bad dreams and desperate soul searching. In nearby rooms, his two daughters, the beautiful and outspoken Lucille, and her shorter - and more peculiar - sister Rosa are equally preoccupied with thoughts of the young men of Barcelona." "As the evening wears on, the unlikely assassins become distracted from their mission, and on the way to the hacienda, encounter lusty barmaids, crises of conscience, pitched battles and - with fatal consequences - the man who ordered Don Rojo's assassination. All the while, the civil war boils around them, forming a chaotic, blood-spattered backdrop to the increasingly surreal drama that unfolds throughout the night."--BOOK JACKET.
