Story summary

La Bola Negra, a Spanish queer drama directed by Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi, won the People's Choice Award at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2023. The film, which spans three different time periods (1932, 1937, and 2017), tells the story of interconnected gay men. It previously premiered at the Cannes film festival, where it received a four-star review from The Guardian's Peter Bradshaw. Netflix acquired the rights to the film in a competitive bidding war following its May premiere.
