From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.This gently whimsical time-travel yarn starts with Andrea Pesce (Andrea Calabrese), a Sicilian member of the International Brigades during the Spanish Civil War, falling through the sky and landing in a small village in contemporary Spain.
The locals think he is an angel and cannot understand why he speaks Italian. He, though, is utterly baffled by his new surroundings and extremely concerned about the beautiful girlfriend he left behind in the 1930s.
The writer-director Jon Cenzual keeps matters light and playful enough to get away with the sheer idiosyncrasy of his premise.
