Narrative
Buried memories of the Spanish Civil War are brought to light when a woman searches for the remains of her grandfather’s father and uncovers the story of an idealistic young teacher from Tarragona.. NanaComposed by Manuel de Falla. Too hard for me to add anything else to the voice of emit1717 who did a great job. His are also exactly my thoughts. I saw this film today in the new Sydney Palace complex with a crowd of less than 10 people! It was hard to keep my eyes dry because of the sadness but also the joy of witnessing such a work. Oh, I need double the number of characters! As a French child I was quite good at Spanish, so I also liked the language which was not fast and clear enough to allow me to understand a little without reading the subtitles! So if 'you' I am also learning Spanish, it might be one more reason to see this beautiful story which, from what I understand, is also a true story.
