Please note that the film screening at the HEART Centre in Headingley has been cancelled. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
The Instituto Cervantes in Leeds will bring this initiative to the city of Leeds with two free screenings of the film: the first at 2 pm at HEART Centre in Headingley, and which will feature a presentation of the film by Professor Duncan Wheeler from the Department of Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies at the University of Leeds. The second screening will take place in a lecture hall in the Parkinson Building at the University of Leeds, and will start at 6.00 pm.
Voyage to Nowhere tells the story of Carlos Galván (Fernán-Gómez), a former comedian now retired in an asylum, who recounts to a psychologist his old days as an actor in a small theater company, the Iniesta-Galván , under the direction of his own father, Don Arturo Galván. It was not a well known company, but a modest family group that toured the small Castilian towns and villages in the post-war years, with a simple repertoire of comedies that they performed on any improvised stage.
