A Remarkable Tale

I didnt like the movie because of the unrealistic script , Racilly uncorrect storyline and the Stereotype way they directed the movie, its kinda laughable and pathetic , who came up with the crazy idea for weird story of the tribal African people running in the snow in a european village ??? And they also speaking spanish.. ? A bove of that The village people are calling them apes and criminals etc .. ?? , I canceled my netflix after watching that Movie . did the director and writer of the movie lived under a rock for all these years and didnt notice that its 2019 and not 1940 ?? The movie was very cringe watching and is very bad. The black actors need to be blamed to cus they got also a hand in this foolery.

Integration is good, racism is bad, and everybody needs love. And laughs, which is something this movie provides... in moderation :)

Four African people escape from human trafficking through the woods and snow. The police are after them for being illegal immigrants, so they hide in a small old town in the hills of Spain.

The movie shows the reality of many actual European rural communities that are disappearing because people (especially young people) move to the cities leaving small towns to die. But the people of Fuentejuela de Arriba are not going to let their community fall without a fight. They meet these four strangers and the out of ignorance prejudices of both groups create some trouble at first, but then they start to know each other appreciating their differences and similarities. They realize they can work together and help one another. "Integrate or die" becomes the town's new motto.

It's a lighthearted and funny simple movie, with a genuine approach reflecting small villages' interactions. If you've ever been in a place like that, you are going to have some extra laugh or two remembering some old cringeworthy character from there.

Funny actors, good performances and an accurate casting.

A nice tale, or a fable if you wish, reflecting sad realities and everyday miseries in a humorous light.

It's a well made movie with apt casting and good - acting, background score and editing. It's light hearted and flows in a singular rhythm. Neither it bores you for a second, nor it accelerates your heartbeat or pumps your adrenaline at any point of time.

Amongst all it's comedies and mash up of two distinct cultures i.e. of European whites and African blacks, it teaches you the virtue of cultural integration and tolerance and depicts the fact that such a mammoth task is actually quite natural and easy if we are ready to see the things from all the perspectives.

The movie is a big slap on the mindset of stereotyping communities or races.

For humans, nothing can surpass the need of human companionship and two individuals can feel compatible irrespective of difference in age, race, color, nationality, social status, literacy level and the likes.

Written apparently according to Netflix's dictation, together with the depicted Spanish villagers, we learn our lesson of the day, that illegal immigrants and gays are saints and useful to western society for breeding reasons. While it is rightfully stated that baddies are baddies independently of colour (or gender I would like to add), it then ammends that they are worst if they are white. An otherwise harmless romantic comedie, became just a vessel of leftist political preach. The characters and protagonists were doing fine in a charming Spanish village background, however it could have been so much more. But no, our lesson is just that we have to absorb the illlegal immigrants by white marriages. So monodimensional it hurts even the immigrants who legal or not migrate with something more in their mind than just reproduction. They could have made something better, but no. Let's leave the complicated to a better writer. Terrible camera use at times with sunlight thrown to our faces hiding what we are meant to watch. If you can shallow all the above you might enjoy a bit. But it felt longer than it is. Which gave me a well deserved sleep. After all, a lesson stays in our mind if we learn it just before sleeep.
