Cinema: "La Isla del Holandés"

"La Isla del holandés", a film made on Eivissa, Formentera, Valencia and Barcelona, will reach cinemas throughout Spain on October 5, in Catalan and Spanish.

The film, based on the novel by the Valencian writer, Ferran Torrent, is the first full feature film directed also by the Valencian, Sigfrid Monleón. The cast is comprised of: Pere Ponce, Cristina Plazas, Feodor Atkine, Juli Mira, Roger Casamajor, Francesc Garrido, Dafnis Balduz and Emma Vilarasau, amongst others.

"La Isla del holandés" is an imaginary story that takes place on an island to which, in 1969, during the Franquist regime, a university professor is deported because of his political activity. The plot, full of romanticism, is part of the debate between development and preservation of nature, between progress and preservation of one's own identity, with the inevitable presence of some authorities with shady interests.
