A Glimpse into a Forgotten Era Bendita Film Sales has acquired "The Fortunate Isles," a 15th century period drama directed by Helena Girón and Samuel Delgado.
The film, which premiered at Toronto's Discovery section, offers a richly detailed exploration of colonialism and power dynamics in the Canary Islands.
Set against the backdrop of the French Norman conquest, the narrative follows Fátima, an enslaved woman, as she searches for water and survival in a treacherous landscape.
