On June 7, 1968, Txabi is driving with another ETA member named Peru when they are stopped by a young traffic officer named José Antonio Pardines. Txabi then does the unthinkable, and thus crossing “the invisible line.”
Following the incident with Civil Guard Pardines, Txabi and Peru are stopped at a police checkpoint, where a shootout ensues and forever changes the course of history for both ETA and Inspector Manzanas.
