99. The Dutchman from Petín | Spain

In the abandoned village of Santoalla in the Galician hills of Spain lived only two families. A local family who had witnessed the mass evacuation and a Dutch couple who had made their dream of running an organic farm come true. At first, the families got on just fine, but after a couple of years, tensions began to rise. It seemed like the stone-rubble village was not big enough for two families after all… Then, Dutch farmer, Martin Verfondern disappeared without a trace.
