LIVING IS EASY WITH EYES CLOSED [Vivir es fácil con los ojos cerrados]
2014 Oscar® Selection, Spain
Albacete, Spain, 1966. Antonio (Javier Cámara, TALK TO HER) is a high-school English teacher fond of using Beatles lyrics as a teaching tool for his students. When he finds out that John Lennon has arrived in Almería to shoot HOW I WON THE WAR, he hops in his Fiat, intent on meeting his hero. Along the way, he picks up two runaways, teens Juanjo and Belén, and together they embark on a life-changing adventure. AFI alum David Trueba has imbued this charming comedy with delightful period touches and a true sense of whimsy. Winner of six Goya Awards including Best Film, Director, Actor and Screenplay.
