Exactly 30 years ago today, more than 600 vacationers were enjoying their holidays at the Las Nieves campsite in Biescas, Huesca. In the mid-afternoon, the sky turned black, and the first drops invited people to seek shelter in tents and caravans. The rain intensified, but not as much as at the head of the Pyrenean Arás ravine, where up to 200 liters per square meter fell in one hour, with a peak of 500 in eight minutes. The torrent dragged stones, logs, and mud, destroyed bridges and dams of the artificial channel, and overflowed to sweep away the tourist complex, located on the alluvial fan of the ravine. 87 people died, 183 were injured, and it took almost a year to recover all the bodies.

She neither opened her phone nor responded to messages on her social networks. She had breakfast with her grandmother and got to work with the interviews to explain in words what she achieved with her dances in the pool of Saint-Denis, another unforgettable memory for her already extensive career.
