La niña de tus ojos

Directed by Fernando Trueba

Cruz won a Best Actress Goya (1 of 7 for the film) for her performance in Trueba’s hit comic drama (based on a true story). In 1938 while the Civil War rages at home, a troupe of Spanish actors travel to Germany to shoot a co-produced remake of an Andalucian musical drama. When lead actress Macarena (Cruz) draws the unwelcome attention of Goebbels, the actors come to realise that this film could cost them dearly. Please note that this film is not in distribution in the UK and has been specially imported from Spain for this season.
