Following are 2017’s ‘Top Ten Videos’ posted at Progressive Spain — our second annual selection based on a combination of the power, poignancy and/or timeliness of each video’s message and the artistry involved in the production.
We hope you enjoy reviewing these videos during the inevitable ‘down time’ of the year-end holidays … and we look forward to sharing more news and exciting videos with you again in the New Year!
