In 1978, a Spanish coastal campground full of German tourists exploded after a tragic accident. This is their story.

Based on the real events that happened on "Los Alfaques", a camping from Tarragona (Catalonia, northeast to Spain) which burned down on July 11, 1978 with 350 dead and more than 500 injured. Los Arecales is a lovely and very popular coastal holiday destination where holidaymakers, families, groups, couples, and singles meet in summertime, crossing their stories and lives in a idyllic scene of eternal relaxation, fun, and harmony: a young patchwork family on the way to their first holiday together; a teenage couple tenting in Spain together for the first time without their parents' knowledge; a terminally-ill elderly military officer who on the last holiday of his life wants to reconcile with his gay son; an unhappy wife whose dominating husband cheats on and humiliates her; a truck driver whose truck has been drastically overloaded with fuel without his knowledge; and the trucker's son, who learns of the danger and tries to prevent the catastrophe before it happens. But when tragedy finally happens and the truck crashes against the campground after an accident and explodes second later when the scattered fuel is fired by a barbecue, Los Arecales is suddenly turned into hell on earth and every moment counts to save as many lives as possible.—Chockys
