Movie in italian language: Il maestro che promise il mare
by Patricia Font – Spain 2023 – 105 minutes
Antoni Benaiges is a Catalan-born elementary school teacher assigned to a mixed-age class in Bañuelos de Bureba (Burgos). His innovative teaching methods and his openness about being an atheist alienate the local priest and mayor, but not his students, who feel he understands their hopes and dreams. One of those dreams is to see the sea. Antoni Benaiges truly existed, and he really did promise the sea to children who could only imagine it. That promise was perfectly aligned with his educational and pedagogical vision.
