Carol's Journey

Gorgeous cinematography dominates this poignant, engaging, coming-of-age 2002 film about a headstrong, 12-year-old girl (Clara Lago) who leaves her pilot father (Ben Temple) in Manhattan in 1938 to go with her ill mother (María Barranco) to visit her kindhearted grandfather (Álvaro de Luna) and uncle (Carmelo Gómez, Lucina Gil, et al.) in Spain, where she is befriended by a rambunctious boy (Juan José Ballesta) and the colorful locals (Rosa María Sardà, Ana Villa, et al.) during the Spanish Civil War.
