Hispanic Film Club: La isla mínima
Manchester Central Library and the Instituto Cervantes of Manchester proudly present the Hispanic Film Club. Join us for this month’s film, La isla mínima.
The Manchester Central Library and the Instituto Cervantes Manchester present the Hispanic Film Club, with a special series that celebrates the richness and diversity of Spanish-language cinema. This programme shines a spotlight on powerful stories of resilience, identity, and humanity, all told through the lens of female directors. Join us on this cinematic journey as we explore the voices and visions of contemporary Hispanic filmmakers.
Film synopsis: The Spanish deep South, 1980. A series of brutal murders of adolescent girls in a remote and forgotten town brings together two disparate characters – both detectives in the homicide division – to investigate the cases. With deep divisions in their ideology, detectives Juan and Pedro must put aside their differences if they are to successfully hunt down a killer who, for years, has terrorised a community in the shadow of a general disregard for women rooted in a misogynistic past.
Suitable for ages 16+
