The image showcases a pre-electoral meeting taking place as people gather on balconies adorned with Basque flags and posters supporting the pro-Basque independence party Democracia Tres Millones (D3M). The vibrant display of patriotism and political support is evident in the sea of colors that grace the balconies, creating a striking visual spectacle against the backdrop of the town. As individuals listen intently to the speakers below, their faces reflect a mixture of anticipation and determination. This photograph serves as a reminder of an important moment in Spanish history when regional elections were approaching, prompting state prosecutors to present documents requesting the banning of DM3 before March 1st.
