Fresh from the 2025 Málaga Film Festival, this enchanting and daring love story from Julio Medem, one of Spain’s most distinctive cinematic voices, follows a couple’s tumultuous relationship over the course of eight decades.
Set across eight defining moments in Spain’s history between 1931 and 2021, this unmissable tale of fate, defiance and passion follows Octavio and Adela, born on the same day in neighbouring villages. Across decades of connection, separation, and change, they are bound by an invisible thread that pulls them together, experiencing longing, reunion and heartbreak.
As Civil War edges closer and family loyalties are tested, Octavio and Adela must find their way through a world determined to pull them apart, in this story of love shaped by history, and a connection that endures across time.
Set against the backdrop of pivotal moments in Spain and Europe’s 20th Century history, this ambitious project stars Javier Rey (The Sleeping Woman, Beyond the Summit), Ana Rujas and Álvaro Morte (Money Heist) in a magnificent story of love, passion, history and forgiveness.
