Entrepreneurs, brave, fighters and independent ... characteristics that, in their time, were more difficult to defend. This is how the women we will meet in this guided tour through the streets of Madrid were like, where did they leave their memories? Where did they study? ... Many of them have already been forgotten by history and we are going to rescue them. We are going to meet the Women who marked the History of Spain through the streets of the capital, where they developed personally and professionally.
