LIVING IS EASY WITH EYES CLOSED
Spain, 1966: Antonio (Javier Cámara, from “I’m So Excited!”) is a teacher and a Beatles fan – facets he combines by getting his pupils to recite the lyrics from “Help” in English class. When he learns that his idol John Lennon is making a film in Almería (Richard Lester’s “How I Won the War”) he resolves to meet him. On the journey he picks up two young runaways: Belén, a pregnant girl fleeing a convent, and Juanjo, a boy escaping a dictatorial father.
