For two young lovers, stormy seas lie ahead.
Asturias, Spain, 1885. Life is hard in the picturesque but desperately poor fishing village of Rodillero. With hunger and tragedy lurking around every corner, any chance at happiness has to be seized before it can slip away.
Jose and Elisa yearn to wed and build a life together here. But it's not only the cruel whims of the sea that stand in the young lovers' way. Their mothers are against the marriage, and they are prepared to resort to underhand means to stop it.
Jose is a compelling tale of fear and bravery, despair and hope, greed and selflessness. Timeless yet deeply rooted in its setting and era, it invites us into a way of life that, though now lost to the past, turns on feelings that resound through the ages.
