In a Foreign Land (En tierra extraña)
Part of the Once Upon a Time in Spain Strand
Bollaín’s powerful documentary is a key title in this year’s retrospective, a thought-provoking study of Spaniards in exile that also presents a fascinating perspective on Scotland’s capital city. In keeping with the rest of Bollaín’s directorial work, the cultural and emotional insights are profound and deeply compelling. First screened at the 62nd San Sebastián Film Festival, In a Foreign Land premiered in the UK as the opening film of the inaugural Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival. [U]
