This is the official Catalan language edition of the work that captured the heart of a nation and earned the prestigious Premio Nacional del Cómic in 2019.This masterfully crafted work of graphic journalism transports you to a pivotal moment in modern Spanish history. On July 3, 2006, just six days before the high-profile visit of Pope Benedict XVI, the city of Valencia was struck by catastrophe. The subway system experienced the worst accident of its kind in the country´s history. On the tracks of the Jesús station, a devastating derailment took 43 lives, left 47 people with serious injuries, and shattered the lives of hundreds of families.In the immediate aftermath, as the city prepared for a global event, a different story began to unfold on the surface. Institutional representatives moved swiftly to turn the page, eager to present a flawless image to the world before the imminent arrival of the Supreme Pontiff. An official version of the accident, one that pointed to simple fatality and operator error, was quickly established and imposed. A formidable government armor was erected, hindering any attempt at a transparent investigation and shielding those in power from accountability. A dense, suffocating layer of oblivion began to spread over the tragedy and its victims.However, where institutions failed, human dignity prevailed. In the face of abandonment and silence, the victims and their families refused to be forgotten. They stood firm, maintaining their hope and their resolve. Month after month, for nearly ten long years, they became a symbol of resilience. Their persistent gathering in the Plaza de la Virgen was a silent, powerful scream, a weekly ritual to demand truth, answers, and justice for the 43 who were lost.El Dia 3 chronicles this courageous fight. It stands as a crucial document that illuminates the shadows of political maneuvering and celebrates the quiet, unyielding courage of ordinary citizens. This graphic novel is an unforgettable reading experience, offering a deeply moving and visually compelling narrative that honors the memory of those who perished and the tireless struggle of those they left behind.---Technical Specifications:* Publisher: Astiberri Ediciones* Language: Catalan* Category: Fan zone* Subcategory: Books and comics / Graphic Novel / Graphic Journalism* Award: Premio Nacional del Cómic 2019* ISBN: 978-84-16880-69-5* Binding: Hardcover. tradeinn Techinn
