In 1935, Antoni Benaiges is hired as a teacher in a small, isolated village in Burgos, Spain. He develops a deep bond with his pupils—children between the ages of six and twelve—to whom he makes a heartfelt promise: he will take them on a journey to see the sea for the very first time in their lives. Seventy-five years later, the granddaughter of one of those children uncovers the extraordinary story hidden behind a promise that could never be fulfilled. A film based on the true story of Antoni Benaiges.
