A genre-defying queer epic, rooted in the legacy of beloved writer Federico García Lorca, this is majestic and original filmmaking.
Spain, 1932. A young man awaits to see if he has secured membership of the local casino. In 1937, a young nationalist soldier guards a republican prisoner. Jump to 2017 and an unexpected document is inherited by an historian from his grandfather.
These timelines and a breathtaking cinematic audacity shapes this dazzlingly constructed and performed triptych about communication, inheritance, silence and memory.
Please note: all BFI London Film Festival screenings will start promptly at the advertised time, and play without ads or trailers.
Presented as part of the 70th BFI London Film Festival.
