Nights in Tefía

Between 1954 and 1966 there was, in a desert area of Fuerteventura, a Francoist concentration camp known by the euphemistic name of Colonia Agrícola Penitenciaria de Tefía, one of many places where the regime sent those convicted under the Law of Vagos y Maleantes which, from 1954, was implemented to also include homosexuals. In 2004, Airam Betancor was forced to recall the seventeen months of forced labor he endured in the colony.

The short film is part of Nastja Säde Rönkkö’s 26-part Survival Guide for the Post-Apocalyptic Child.
