Plot
Rafa, a flirtatious Seville man, meets Amaia, a woman from the Basque Country, and in order to impress her pretends to be Basque himself. When she returns to her village, he follows her there and keeps up the lie, with the help of his friend, while the village prepares for a family event. Emilio Martínez-Lázaro's 2014 comedy plays on regional stereotypes, and was a huge box-office success in Spain.
Sinekatalog’s take
Emilio Martínez-Lázaro's comedy has a Seville flirt pretend to be Basque to win a woman from the Basque Country, then follow her to her village. Dani Rovira and Clara Lago are charming in a funny, affectionate comedy that was a huge Spanish hit.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
