El Nido

Directed by Jaime de Armiñán

Armiñán’s Oscar-nominated drama recounts the story of the “chaste but erotic love” between the quixotic, 60-year-old Don Alejandro and the budding 13-year-old Goyita (Torrent). The 13-year-old Torrent won the Best Actress award at the Montreal Film Festival for this performance. “A film of infinite tenderness, lyricism and passion” Time Out
