Genres & Description

Action Drama Romance War

6.8 / 10

1987, love in time of war. A bus driver George Lennox meets Carla, a Nicaraguan exile living a precarious, profoundly sad life in Glasgow. Her back is scarred, her boyfriend missing, her family dispersed; she's suicidal. George takes her to Nicaragua to find out what has happened to them and to help her face her past. Once home, Carla's nightmarish memories take over, and Carla and George are thrown into the thick of the US war against the Sandinistas. A mystery develops over where Carla's boyfriend is, and the key to his whereabouts may be Carla's friend Bradley, a bitter American aid worker. She finds her family, the Contras attack, and she and the Scot face their choices.

Fantastic performances from Robert Carlyle, Oyanka Cabezas, Scott Glenn and Gary Lewis. It's not everyday that you see a Glasgow double decker bus driver stuck in the mud up at Loch Lomond after a romantic picnic with a gorgeous Nicaraguan lady. Carla's song is one of those movies that encapsulates the reality and horrors in Nicaragua by the fighting militia. George Lennox played by Robert Carlyle is faced with the ultimate choice of returning back to Glasgow with or without Carla! Top film! - @Friday, March 15, 2013 9:33 AM

I just watched this film and think its one of the best I'v ever seen. An Incredibly touching story set in an incredibly fucked up world. x x - @Wednesday, April 6, 2011 3:55 AM
