Storia
In 'Al sur de Granada' (2003), Englishman Gerald Brenan arrives in Yegen, a village in Alpujarra, Spain, after World War I, aiming to rent a house for a year to focus on reading and writing. He becomes the center of attention among the locals: his maid Maria has a marriageable daughter Angeles; Paco offers guidance about love and the village; his landlady, her friend (a devotee of Saint Teresa), the priest, and the teenage beauty Julia (daughter of a witch) all take interest in him. Gerald must navigate his feelings and resist the women's plans for his future while seeking genuine romance. The film explores his struggle to adapt to the village culture and determine how far he can venture from his class and country.
