Andalus
Sunday 11 December 2005 20:15-21:45 (Radio 3)
By Jason Webster, dramatised by Tina Pepler.
A young English writer sets out to discover Spain's hidden Moorish past. He visits an enormous, plastic-sheeted farm and witnesses farmers terrorising the largely North African workforce. His life is threatened as he covertly tours this agricultural gulag, but is saved by an illegal immigrant. The unlikely pair of writer and desperado take off on a rollercoaster ride through Andalucía.
