Abandonados, a case by Carles Porta, revisits one of the most unsettling episodes in recent Spanish history. Forty years after being abandoned at a train station in Barcelona, three siblings embark on an investigation to uncover their identity and their past. Through testimonies, archival material, and a long-term investigation, the work reflects on memory, identity, and the search for truth.

This is a series about true crimes that happened in Catalonia. Carles Porta presents the cases from the Catalunya Ràdio studio with a brief introduction before giving way to each chapter. Her voice over accompanies the whole chapter, with a tone and style to captivate and connect with the viewer.

In 1984, three children were abandoned at a Barcelona train station with no memory of their identity or past. Unclaimed, they were adopted into loving homes. As adults, they now search for their biological parents.
