A dark-hued family drama set in Spain’s Canary Islands, The Island Inside relates the story of three siblings on the run from themselves. Martin wants to leave home and become a writer in Paris. Gracia wants to put some reality back into the fictional world that her life has become. Coral just wants to be loved. The sudden death of their father forces them to leave the inner island that isolates them from their loved ones, from their dreams… and from being themselves. With Pedro Almodovar as their cinematic godfather, the filmmaker duo Dunia Ayaso and Félix Sabroso deliver a superb psychodrama with astounding performances by the best Spanish independent actors working today: Alberto San Juan, Candela Peña, Cristina Marcos, and a superb Geraldine Chaplin as the mother.
