LAND AND FREEDOM (1995)

KEN LOACH

Plot

Told in flashback, this is the tale of an idealistic young Liverpudlian communist who enlisted on the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War, but finds himself both falling in love with a Spanish anarchist and a victim of the inter-factional fighting and lack of organization that lost the war for the left. A moving and intelligent film.
