The play Profound Dignity  by Sonia Carmona Tapia presents Roma heroes opposing the communist and the Franco-regime. The show commemorates the life of two Spanish women. She tells the life story of Emilia Hernández Rodríguez, the first Gypsy women who was beatified, in 2017, and Gabriela Ortega Gómez, the first Gypsy performing artist who obtained academic qualifications. The two female hero stories unfold paralelly. They both stood up for what they believed in and fought back the current authorities. Through Emilia's story, we can get a glimpse at the Spanish Civil War whereas Gabriela brings us back to the Franco-regime.
