Global Languages Movie Night: El maestro que prometió el mar

In El maestro que prometió el mar (2023), director Patricia Font brings to life the inspiring true story of Antoni Benaiges, a progressive teacher in 1930s rural Spain who vowed to show his students the sea—a promise tragically unfulfilled due to the Spanish Civil War. Decades later, Ariadna, the granddaughter of one of his pupils, embarks on a poignant journey to uncover her family’s past, intertwining themes of memory, education, and the enduring impact of historical trauma.
