Students and the public are invited to see Granada Nights, showing from 11am at Storyhouse in Chester, followed by an hour-long Q&A with the director and producer, Abid Khan, on Thursday January 20.
The award-winning film tells the story of a British tourist who is stuck in Granada, Spain, with a broken heart. Feeling lost and abandoned, he befriends a group of young foreigners and crashes into the heart of the international student scene.
He pushes himself out of his comfort-zone and tries to restart his life but behind every corner is a reminder of his ex-girlfriend and his struggle to find closure.
As Abid will discuss further at the event, the film mixes documentary with fiction to create a real and authentic heartfelt examination on the process of self-discovery and an insight into intercultural experience and communication.
Reviewers have described it as “ambitious”, “stylish”, “emotional” and a “charming, beautifully poetic directorial debut”.
