Summary: From case cover: A finales de los años 50 Florence Green decide hacer realidad uno de sus mayores sueños: abandonar Londres y abrir una pequeña librería en un pueblo de la costa británica. Pero para su sorpresa, esta decisión desatará todo tipo de reacciones entre los habitantes de la localidad. Ganadora de 3 Premios Goya: Mejor Película, Mejor Dirección y Mejor Guion Adaptado. Escrita y dirigida por Isabel Coixet (“Aprendiendo a conducir”) a partir de la aclamada novela homónima de Penelope Fitzgerald. Un film sobre el valor de la literatura y la importancia de luchar por las causas justas. Protagonizada por Emily Mortimer (“La invención de Hugo”), Bill Nighy (“Su mejor historia”) y la nominada al Oscar Patrica Clarkson (“Elegy”), la película inauguró la Seminci de Valladolid y se presentó en el Festival de Berlin. Lúcida, delicada y conmovedora. From IMDb: England, 1959. Free-spirited widow Florence Green (Emily Mortimer) risks everything to open a bookshop in a conservative East Anglian coastal town. While bringing about a surprising cultural awakening through works by Ray Bradbury and Vladimir Nabokov, she earns the polite but ruthless opposition of a local grand dame (Patricia Clarkson) and the support and affection of a reclusive book loving widower (Bill Nighy). As Florence's obstacles amass and bear suspicious signs of a local power struggle, she is forced to ask: is there a place for a bookshop in a town that may not want one? Based on Penelope Fitzgerald's acclaimed novel and directed by Isabel Coixet (Learning to Drive), The Bookshop is an elegant yet incisive rendering of personal resolve, tested in the battle for the soul of a community. England 1959. In a small East Anglian town, Florence Green decides, against polite but ruthless local opposition, to open a bookshop.
