Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for history and war-film fans and people who like stories about real, flawed people. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost. Fans of Parallel Mothers should feel right at home.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 40 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Spain, 1938, during the Spanish Civil War. Carol, a 12-year-old Spanish-American girl, arrives in her mother's hometown and transforms the secretive family environment. Her innocence and rebellious nature drive her at first to reject a world that is at once foreign and completely new.
