Synopsis |
|
The haunted psychologies of the
individual and the national combine
in the Spanish film EL MAR (THE
SEA). During the Spanish Civil War
of the 1930s, three friends witness
the horrific murder of a classmate.
Many years later, the three find
themselves reunited, although under
less than happy circumstances. Tur
and Ramallo have been quarantined
for tuberculosis, and their old
friend Francisca is a nun working in
the asylum. They all remain haunted
by what occurred during the war, as
all of Spain was, and struggle to
reconcile with their pasts, their
religion, and the growing homosexual
attraction between Tur and Ramallo. |
