The group leader, Neus Barceló, asks for silence. The courtyard at 35 Nou Street in Manacor is packed. There is a rehearsal and only a few days left until one of the most important performances of the human tower season in Mallorca: the celebration of the thirtieth anniversary of the Al·lots de Llevant. A test run of a human tower intended for the square is being performed, and everyone needs maximum concentration.

Manacor doesn't want to give up being the effective (and financially rewarding) capital of the Levante region. Therefore, it has recruited the local People's Party, the key that could open the door to the municipality being able to finance itself with an additional €5 million per year, in exchange for satisfying the needs of Sant Llorenç, Son Servera, Capdepera, and Artà with the creation of a services association.
