The film adaptation of the soul-stirring true story from Spain, 'The Teacher Who Promised the Sea', tells the tale of teacher Antoni Benaiges who advocated 'freedom of expression' in education before the Spanish Civil War in 1936. The film, likened to the Spanish version of 'Les Choristes', pays tribute to educators and has received high praise from audiences in Spain, Taiwan, and international film festivals, with many viewers reportedly leaving the theaters in tears. The lead actress, Luisa Gavasa, was deeply moved by the story's resemblance to her grandfathers' experiences and found the film necessary to shed light on historical events, urging viewers not to forget the past to avoid repeating mistakes.
