The Caste Series - Directed by Victor Tejera

Spain as a world power in corruption. A few kilometers away from Madrid, in a quiet village, the powers that have a super-secret base, Area 35, which was built thanks to diversion of public funds. 
From the inside, these guys plan to dominate the world, but the outbreak of the crisis and citizen revolts against the cuts prevent them from getting it. After several failed attempts, they create a virus able to reassure the public and return it to its peaceful and lethargic life in front of the television.  On the other hand, the terrorist group "Platform for culture" gets organized in the basement of a bar with a single goal: set off a revolution. All seem to have it under control, but on day D something goes wrong. Awfully wrong. The virus is out of control.
