REVIEW

In 1939, in a French prison camp, José Garcés of the defeated Spanish Republican army raises the spirits of his fellow prisoners by telling the story of the year he was 8 years old, 1911, in a small town in northeastern Spain. He was a rascal, baffling his father, always in trouble, and in love with Valentina, a neighbor girl. On his roof top at night he sends semaphore messages to her. He writes poems. He gets them into trouble, killing her father's breeding pigeons. When the two families camp at a decaying castle, his tutor, a sympathetic priest, tells him about the most valiant men, the saints, the heroes, and the poets. Already a poet, he learns a lesson about being a hero. Based on the novel of Ramon J Sender.This is the first part. “1919 Cronica del Alba” is the second part.VISIT MY EBAY SHOP

En 1939, José Garcés, vencido, prisionero en el campo de concentración de Argeles (Francia), consigue mantenerse en vida aferrándose a sus recuerdos. Sobre todo, al recuerdo de su primer amor. Valentina, la hija del notario, una niña rubia y angelical que se convirtió en su imposible ideal y a la que nunca debía olvidar. Valentina es una historia de amor en un pueblo del norte de España hacia 1919. José Arcés, a los 12 años es un niño lleno de vitalidad que duda entre ser héroe, santo o poeta, y que inventa lo que sea necesario para estar con Valentina, pese a las amenazas familiares y a la sombra inquietante de los padres de su novia. Mosén Joaquín profesor del niño, es el único en comprender la fuerza de su pasión. Basada en la novela de Ramón J Sender. Es la primera parte, su continuación tiene lugar en “1919 Cronica del Alba”.
