Carla's Song (Director's Cut)

Carla's Song (Director's Cut)

Suitable For 15 Years And Over.Info Stars: Robert Carlyle, Oyanka Cabezas, Scott Glenn

Director: Ken Loach

Summary: A bus driver falls for a refugee from Nicaragua and eventually she succumbs to his charms. But she remains haunted by what happened to her boyfriend during the Nicaraguan revolution. They decide to travel to the South American country and put the ghosts to rest.

Paul Laverty drew on his experiences as a lawyer working with human rights groups in Nicaragua in writing the script for CARLA'S SONG, which stars Robert Carlyle (TRAINSPOTTING) as George, a Glasgow bus driver. Attracted to Carla (Oyanka Cabezas), a beautiful but impoverished Nicaraguan woman who often rides his bus, he sometimes allows her to ride for free--and is fired as a result. But he keeps in touch with Carla, helping her find a place to live in a spare room of a friend's apartment after learning that she's become detached from a dance troupe, forcing her to dance in the streets of Glasgow for meager remuneration. As they continue to see each other, George finds that Carla is subject to drastic mood swings, a result of her Sandinista boyfriend, Antonio (Richard Loza), having been captured by the Contras. Realizing that nothing will be resolved until Carla discovers the truth about Antonio, George agrees to accompany her to Nicaragua to try to find him. Carlyle is typically excellent in this film by hard-hitting English filmmaker Ken Loach, who is known for casting an unswerving eye on complex political and human rights issues.
