The film 'The Teacher of the Sea's Promise' tells the story of a young teacher persecuted in the prelude to the Spanish Civil War in the 1930s, solely because of his innovative teaching style that challenged conservative norms. The movie is based on true events and depicts how the teacher's enthusiasm won over initially skeptical parents but also brought him trouble. Through meticulous research, historical scenes like mass graves in northern Spain and the town's architecture in 1935 were recreated. The film portrays the impact of the teacher's unconventional teaching methods on the town and how his promises to take his students to see the sea were never fulfilled due to the political turmoil of the time.
