Maixabel

Maixabel Lasa loses in the year 2000 her husband, Juan María Jaúregui, murdered by ETA. Eleven years later, she receives an unusual request: one of the killers has asked to meet her at the Nanclares de la Oca prison in Álava, where he is serving his sentence after breaking ties with the terrorist group. Despite doubts and immense pain, Maixabel Lasa agrees to meet face‑to‑face with the people who cold‑bloodedly ended the life of the man who had been her companion since she was sixteen. “Everyone deserves a second chance,” she says when asked why she sits opposite her husband’s murderer.
