Farid, a young migrant in Spain, joins the Red Cross as a volunteer to combat loneliness. There he meets Rosalía, a retired journalist who gives him an old radio transmitter, sparking memories of his father and his love of storytelling. Inspired, Farid creates a community radio programme to bring his neighbourhood together. Although the launch is a bit of a let-down with an empty square, Rosalía encourages him and rallies the community. Little by little, the programme gains popularity and transforms the square into a meeting place, demonstrating the power of unity and the community impact of radio.

For showcasing an example of the transformative power of people when they connect, communicate and come together in the most diverse ways. This enables us not to be overcome by discouragement in projects that are ultimately the work of others.
