Il Postino (The Postman)

Presented by St. Augustine Film Society at Unknown

Pablo Neruda, the famous Chilean poet, is exiled to a small island for political reasons. On the island, the unemployed son of a poor fisherman is hired as an extra postman due to the huge increase in mail that this causes. Though poorly educated, the postman learns to love poetry and eventually befriends Neruda. Struggling to grow and express himself more fully, he suddenly falls in love and needs Neruda's help and guidance more than ever. This is a fictional love story wrapped around the world renowned poetry of Pablo Neruda.
