La Buena Nueva

Directed by Helena Taberna

Based on a true story, La buena nueva is an emotional tale of love, war and faith set in the Spanish Civil War. Miguel, a young, idealistic priest is posted to a small working-class parish in the north of Spain in 1936. His earnest concern for his parishioners brings him both conflict with the Catholic church and friendship with Margari, a young schoolteacher, whose husband has been killed by the fascists.
