You've been working until 6 a.m.?

Yes, today I got home at 6:30 a.m.

After helping out in the firefighting
operations in the afternoon

our shift was extended
until we could leave.

What's the status of the fire according
to what you've observed and verified?

The perimeter is immense.

We knew from the get-go
that this was going to be a major fire

but nobody could have expected
one of this magnitude.

And I must admit
that with this fire

we were all stunned by the amount
of wild animals coming out of the fire.

When they saw us firefighters at work,
they were so afraid of us

they went back into the fire.

The wild animals?

Yes. Wild boar, lynx,
roe deer and others.

They'd rather go back into the fire
than come anywhere near humans.

- They'd rather go back into the flames?
- Yes, that's what I'm saying.

- Those wind turbines are so loud, right?
- Yes. Especially when it's windy.

- Just listen to that noise.
- Yeah... Seriously.

When making the roads
for the wind turbines

they leave no room for the horses.
They totally ruin everything.

- Did they go ahead with it?
- Yes, of course.

Unbelievable.

Look, they're way over there.
I see one.

- Are there any white ones?
- No.

Many brown ones.

There are two, four, six...
Eight, nine...

- See the little filly there?
- 14. Yes, there she is.

Do you want to take a look?

They're heading further away.

It's getting foggier.

It's all yellow. Really dry.

Well, the fog lasts a long time
around here.

- What would it look like otherwise?
- Like the Sahara.

Look, here they are.

- We can see the white one clearly now.
- From here, yes.

What a noise.

Our tires are going to blow out.

- When they hear the car, they take off.
- Yes.

Keep still.

Keep still.

... one of the worst in Spain.

How do you see the future regarding fires
Not only in Galicia, but in all of Europe

The future? It will only get worse.

It's tied to climate change of course.

A temperature increase of 1 degree C
generates 12% more lightning.

This is a documented fact.

When the atmosphere is more unstable,
and combustibles more available

there's a 12% increased possibility
of fire ignitions.

In your opinion, how can we
better prepare for future fires?

- First of all, we must understand them.
- Understand them?

There are fires jumping 19 or 15 km.

They cross highways.
They devour everything.

Do the chickens need to be fed,
or do they have food left?

I don't know.

I'll go and check.

And at Mr. David's place,
do they have enough to eat?

Everything's dried up, right?

It's all dry. They don't have
any water for irrigation.

We have to water
the turnips and the corn.

- Do you want some more?
- No. I still have a little.

Do you read me?

Let's get on with the extinction.
Make sure everything's all right.

Jorge, we're heading up. It's looking
good already. Not much of a problem.

The cut down below is holding up.
There are fire brigades.

The Pala cut goes all the way up
to the top of the Vaguada.

There's only smoke behind it,
it's heading for the burnt part

so I don't think it's going to escape
from the left... sorry, right side.

There's a lot of swirling fire and dust
on the edge, and that's odd.

Right on the edge
in the southernmost area.

Okay. We're here now,
where we left you earlier.

50%.

Up ten points.

40% humidity.

And the scrubland must be
up to 70-80%.

- Look at that color.
- It hasn't rained here.

No, not a single drop of rain
has fallen here.

Look, this mountain here, it's 28.8 C.
And now we're heading for Ver�n.

31-33 degrees
at this time of day is really high.

Everything's about to blow.
Damn it.

All of this is going to blow.
From those wind turbines...

All of it.
4,000 or 3,000 hectares.

Okay.

There's very little risk of reignition.
Very little.

- The boss.
- What boss?

Hi boss.

Look.

Let's see if I can make it
stick up there.

Asier, stand next to me just in case.
If it falls on you, get out of the way.

Oh, it's falling on me.

The stick almost killed me.

Let's try this one.

Careful, echo.

Echo, echo...

... park.

- I'm bending...
- Look out.

I'm bending a freaking tree.

- It wasn't in Baiona. I looked it up.
- I think it was in Baiona.

It was longer ago.
I was at my grandparents' house

and the smoke from it reached Madrid.
I saw it on the news.

But it wasn't near Baiona,
and it was arson.

Yes, someone set the forest on fire.

I think the police saw him.
Well, bye.

You think?

Let's peel another tree.

Let's peel another one.

Good one, Asier.

Really good.

Come on.

First, let me try.

So super close, dude.
Oh, man.

We have to get more stones later.

Wow, you almost hit me.

Cool.

Let's get out of here.
Run for your life, Pedro.

- Run, Pedro, run.
- Wait for me.

Run, Pedro, run.

- I found a huge stone.
- Wanna play something else?

Wanna play something else?

Sure, we could...

The one with the wild horses?
Remember the one with the bull we played?

Right.

Run.

Hello.

- Hello. It's Eva, right?
- Yes.

I'd like you to come
take a look at our horse again.

She has a bad cold.

- Does she have a lot of mucus?
- No, no mucus. She has a cough.

- A cough. Okay.
- I'd like you to take a look at her.

- I'll try to come today or else tomorrow.
- Okay, I guess.

Okay.
It'll probably be tomorrow, okay?

What are you doing with the phone?
It keeps beeping.

Well, I'll call you tomorrow.
Don't worry about it.

- Okay.
- Okay, great. Bye-bye.

Bye.

Easy now. Hey, hey.

Easy... There you go.
Good girl.

Good girl.

Hey, hey.

- How old is she?
- Eight years, I think.

- Ruben knows, but I think she's eight.
- She's young.

It's okay.

- What do you do, Mingos?
- I work for the Community Forestry.

- Here in O Rosal?
- Yes.

- What do you do?
- A bit of everything.

I drive the tractor, we keep goats,
we clear the undergrowth...

- To prevent fires.
- Exactly.

It's so scary.
I'm terrified of fire.

They've been living in the mountains
for thousands of years.

And although they live in complete
freedom, with very little human influence

they are in fact subjected
to a traditional management system

which involves gathering them once a year

and performing what is called curros.

These curros represent
an enormous cultural value for Galicia.

And another thing...

They make up the largest population
of wild horses in Europe.

Approximately 10,000 animals.

But there were 22,000 of them
70 years ago.

So, the decrease is dramatic.

If you look to the sides,
if there are any...

We might already see some horses here.

- To the left we have a few.
- In front.

Well, another characteristic is that,
although horses are considered...

In English, they're called "grazers",
they graze, eat grass.

These horses from Galicia, Portugal,
from the northwestern Iberian Peninsula

are capable of feeding
on bushy vegetation.

And one of their main
food sources is gorse.

If you're Galician, you know
what gorse is, right?

A very thorny shrub
that they are capable of eating.

Gorse is very flammable.

And that takes us
to what I'll explain next.

From eight in the morning...
till eight the next day.

- No. It's 12 hours, man.
- It's 24 hours, San.

When you're on duty,
your shift is 24 hours.

We're on duty for 24 hours?
24 plus 24 equals 48.

We work 150 hours in two weeks,
more than an entire unit in one month?

- No, man.
- Yes. Shifts are 24 hours, San.

- You still don't like M�sia, do you?
- She's not bad.

- But it's not traditional fado.
- No. She was never a traditional fadisa.

- Right. Traditional fado is unbearable.
- Sure. But she sings with Iggy Pop.

She's a remarkable singer.
I've wanted to see her all my life.

I drove 300 km or even more
just to see her. Spectacular.

- M�sia?
- She's an incredible singer.

And the setting at Costa de la Muerte
with the Abalar Rock on your left

and the Touri��n lighthouse on your right.

The roughest sea
on the entire Iberian Peninsula.

And that woman... It felt like
the sea stopped in its tracks.

The sea fell silent
to let her be heard.

It was calm?

- It didn't move.
- Calm...

This is M�sia.

I'm off, Benigno.
See you tomorrow.

Roger that.
See you tomorrow.

Dammit...

Okay, perfect.

It's perfect there.

Mom, over here.

Bring the nozzle.

I'll bring it around here, on this side.

The reservoirs...
They've never been this low before.

The other day I was checking...

They say it won't rain until October 15th.

Then it should start raining.

This looks bad.

Here. Thanks.

Come on.

I need to ask you something...

Go ahead, Juan Carlos.

Have you got them all, Dad?

Got it, Juan Carlos. Good evening.

Give me a good one.

I only know how to play Brisca.

The last ones, Dad.

The discarded ones.

No one wants them.

Let's see.

- You took them, didn't you?
- Yes.

What a disaster.

- By only one card.
- Dad wins.

Okay, let's move forward.
Hurry up.

If there's any smoke remaining,
let me know, okay?

- Here, Cristina.
- Keep it up, keep it up.

Make sure he doesn't come loose, Asier.

- He won't come loose.
- Go on.

Hey, he won't come loose?

Want a hand?

Come on under.

- Come on, he won't hurt you.
- No.

This way then.
Look, he's tame.

Place it somewhere on him
and hold it like this

with your thumb like this,
and then do this part.

With your thumb like this.

All of it, until it looks like this.
Then you'll put the conditioner on, okay?

- Closer, don't be afraid of the horse.
- Wait.

- Do I continue with his leg or here?
- No. Over here. Not his leg.

One.

Again.

Harder.

Very good.

Now on his...
Do it here now, dude.

- If you want, I'll do his neck.
- Okay.

Maybe it's a bit hard for you,
because you have to be pretty strong.

And I'm really strong.

- Harder. Go closer.
- Don't push me.

Get close like this
and press good and hard.

Man, when I was three,
I got this close to his leg.

I didn't care if he kicked me.

You have to do it really fast.

No, no.

Get up.
What the hell are you doing?

Filthy.

There, for example.

Didn't you hear it?

- What the fuck?
- What is it?

It's like he says it there,
and then you hear it over there.

I'm great at sounding like a horse.

How?

- You sure are.
- I've been practicing since I was little.

- I'm terrible at it.
- Let's hear it.

No.

Oh, man.

That one?

Come on now.
Take the fair one.

Come on. Saddle that filly
Come on, this one.

- That's number 44.
- That's not it, it's the other one.

- Not this one, the other one.
- That's not it. That was the other one.

Pedro, show some guts, for God's sake.

- You're getting cocky, aren't you?
- For Christ's sake!

You can kiss my ass!

Come on, man.

- Which one is it?
- This one, for God's sake.

This one.

The helicopter's on its way up.

- It won't make any difference now.
- This fire can't be extinguished.

Look at all those birds.

Look at all the birds.

Oh, my God.

- Now there it is.
- Now, now.

Where will it dump the water?

They didn't hit anything, man.

- And where's this one coming from?
- They haven't dropped anything.

And that one's going the same way.

It's being dropped. Now, now.

They are dumping the water now.

This fire really scares
the hell out of me.

Look. That helicopter's headed
for my plot of land.

Where's it going?
They're circling around...

There on the hill.
The fire reignited there.

What a bunch of bastards.

These fires were tiny this morning.
It was nothing.

And now look at the mess
they made again, dammit.

Come on.

I went to Fonte Vella
and they weren't doing much yet.

They beat it by hand with rackets.

Just like that.
And now it started up again.

And why? Because they stood there
watching instead of putting out the fire.

They were there at Luis' place. A brigade
by the road doing nothing at all.

Goddamn it.

We're already doing
the potential five-hour fire perimeter.

I'll send it over.

Maybe later we figure out what maneuvers
to adjust, but the potential one...

It's being restrained by the
Fresca firewall. The Lombo firebreak.

There's a firebreak ahead that descends
perpendicularly. We have to act.

But take a look, get closer.
Get into position.

- Make your analysis calmly.
- Very well.

Careful, Jorge.

Come on, man. Pull in, dammit.

I'll write it down for you here,
real damn fast.

The left flank appears
to be the most active.

Get closer.

Did you copy me?

Can you repeat that, please?

The cut we're making
from the left side to the back...

We need to get a couple of people in there

because this is moving really fast.
It could jump right over.

Ahead.

Ahead, on the right.

Hey. Hey.

Hey.

There are secondary hotspots
on the other side.

There are secondary hotspots
on the other side.

My God. I already asked for
air support for the left flank.

The left flank area.

We're on our own here.

No one sees anything clearly.

It's getting pretty complicated.

- There's so much fire, huh?
- Yeah.

- Wow, those cars coming from there...
- How did they get through?

They must be covered in dust and ashes.

It's coming closer, isn't it?

- The wind is blowing it this way.
- If I see a single flame, I'm out of here.

I'll take my bike.

Oh, right. It's faster by bike.

Leave one bird alive, at least.

Look. No, no.

- Ashes.
- Ugh, I got some in my eye.

I don't like the smoke.

It smells.

It smells like grandpa's barbecue.

- They're going to evacuate us.
- Yes.

- Hey, the cables are burning.
- That's why they cut the power.

Right. That's why they cut the power.

- And what about the birds?
- No, no. The birds are fast enough.

But birds, like all animals,
can get surprised from above.

That is...

The descending smoke
might catch them by surprise

and then they won't fly away.
It's a surprise...

There are fires burning
8,000 hectares an hour, okay?

Seriously. I'm not kidding.

So, the animals...
At that velocity

some animals aren't fast enough
to escape through the forest.

The wind is so strong.

Nothing's going to stop this, dammit.

- Let's go.
- Okay, let's go.

The flash point is climbing to 30%.

Relative humidity is down to 65%,
that's why.

Holy crap, the transfer rate is high,
it's like 3.9 km/h.

This is getting pretty complicated.

Holy crap.

The relative humidity is plummeting.
The flash point is up to 30%.

We have to go down to the road
and cut off the fire.

Right now, a direct attack here
is completely out of the question.

We can't get in here.
We have to go get the fire truck.

Also, it's circling us from behind now.

Let's go to that burned area,
back there.

We can't let it surround us from behind.
We have a good escape route

but we need to move.

- Slowly but surely.
- Okay.

You've been fighting fires for 32 years.

In what ways have fires changed
in that time?

The fires were changing progressively.
Then they made a kind of jump

and their increased speed, intensity,
power and erratic behavior

is now substantially different.

One of the most surprising things is
the change in the sound of these fires.

They sound different, they roar.
It's a different sound.

Totally different.

Also, sometimes...

You call them beasts?

Right. The behavior of some fires
is like a burning beast.

- Their sound is different.
- What do they sound like?

It's a roar, not a sound.

Their sound is a roar.

- Were you ever afraid?
- Of course. Very much.

With 40 m flames coming at you,
how could you not be afraid?

When I tell you to look serious,
then you look like a magazine model, okay?

And it's cool, okay? And then
I tell you to look at me and smile, okay?

Then we get two pictures in one. One
like a model and one with a smile, dude.

- That's right.
- That's my way of tricking you guys.

- But hey, you'll get it later.
- Yep.

Hold the reins now like you're going to...
But don't move, okay?

We get super cool pictures like this,
holding the reins.

- And then pet him like before.
- Here?

- Where does he like it?
- Rubio? He likes it here.

On the neck?

- And also here...
- And the pictures from before...

I had to take them again because I didn't
get Rubio's hooves in the picture.

And you'll kill me if I don't get
his hooves in the picture, right?

I have pictures with him cut off
and other full shots of you, okay?

Now, look toward the antennas,
like before. That's it.

I have some cool ones like that.
Look toward the antenna.

- Is the sun bothering you?
- No. Almost, but no...

No, no, don't leave.
Stay there and look that way, okay?

Can you turn around
and come back to where you were?

It was perfect, okay, man?

Giddy up.

This looks super cool.

There you go.
Damn, that's so cool, man.

Great, Pedro. Now look that way.
