It doesn't mention what Basque nationalists have written about non-Basque people or immigrant workers ("degenerated people", as Sabino Arana said). It remarks that the Basque Country has become an obsession for Spain, but 'forgets' about the reason of that obsession: there's a terrorist group who keeps killing people. And it doesn't mention that lots of Basque people just don't want independence because they feel both Basque and Spanish. The funniest thing comes when the narrator says that he doesn't want to talk about politics: so what are you talking about? ‘Small Nations, Big Games’ gives a rather simplistic and partial vision of the Basque Country.
