Summary

From the onset of the civil war, from 1946 and up until 1955, court-martials had sent thousands of young people from the ranks of EAM, ELAS, and KKE before a firing squad. Until a three-to-two judgment verdict was allowed, human networks, mainly of women, operated in a touching way, trying in the most unlikely ways to influence military judges, give courage to the condemned and take care of the prisoners' children.
