Description
(Between the Orange Trees) This is a magnificently filmed three-part production of the classic 1900 Blasco Ibanez novel. Rafael Brull, a young man dominated by the environment of a small town in Levant, dreams of escaping the provincial life.

With Leonora, Rafael flees the impending marriage and travels the world, only to return to Levant and his provincial roots. Directed by Josefina Molina.
