The Anarchist's Wife
Directed by Peter Sehr, Marie Noëlle
Produced by P'Artisan Filmproduktion, Zip Films
A tender, melancholic historical drama about a woman's unwavering devotion to her husband across years of separation, war, and political upheaval.
Manuela is left behind when her husband Justo fights for his ideals against Franco's Nationalists during the Spanish Civil War. He is deported to a concentration camp, and upon his release, continues the fight against nationalism in the French resistance. Years pass without a word from him, but his wife never gives up hope of seeing him again.
