Join us for an unforgettable day celebrating the Scottish Premiere of The Boy and the Suit of Lights, directed by Inma de Reyes (2024 | 81m | 12A).
Borja inherits the weight of his grandfather Matías’s unfulfilled dream of becoming a professional bullfighter. For Matías, it’s more than tradition; it’s a hope for escape from generational poverty. But for Borja, the path ahead is narrow, hemmed in by orange groves, fishing boats, and the blood-soaked sand of the bullring. The film captures the quiet tension between progress and tradition in a place where choices are few and dreams come at a price.
🌎 Language: Spanish with English subtitles
