ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Behind the story: Spain is going to the polls early — and housing helped push it there.

SignsWatch follows the chain from one eviction to protest, emergency legislation, parliamentary defeat and finally an election — and asks what happens when the arithmetic of an essential part of everyday life simply stops working.
