LA ROCA 
when will we be able to see this in Gibraltar?
Hi Rosina! Thank you so much for your interest in La Roca. We are working hard to find distributors in Spain and Gib. Please consider spreading the word. The bigger our fan base, the more broadcasters will be interested in telling this story.
Stay tuned on Facebook for upcoming news!
You should consider talking with the Instituto Cervantes in Gibraltar they do have a film room like an small cinema and do film proyections I believe they should be interested
Muchas gracias por tu sugerencia, Maria. Estamos abriendo muchas posibilidades para llevar la película a Gibraltar lo antes posible. Tendremos noticias muy pronto!
Abrazos, Raúl
when will it be out on dvd?
Can’t wait to see this after long awaiting its release, yet i have to wait to see this when it comes out in Gib or Spain.
Leisure Cinemas if you read this, you should project this screen for Gibraltarians and others to see.
@ Filmmakers – Thanks.. this really brings a change to the atmosphere we are currently living with cross border relations. Nice to know that I will see something that is purely history and not politically motivated in any way.
I am following closely 😉
Coming from Spain I very much doubt that it will be purely historic and not politically motivated. That is, unless its simply another Trojan Horse like the Instituto Cervantes.
i was in this film. i met the director and was fortunate enough to work with raul and some of his team in the starbar filming a scene in which i was supporting england in a football match along side tito vallejo and other members of cave explorers gibraltar.
Watched the Trailer looks brilliant….well done and congratulations.
Come on Leisure Cinemas you can screen this for us all.
You need to get this out before the PP obtain political power, or it will never be allowed in Spain!!
don’t believe they have such a powerful censorship :). I’m sure it can be shown even with PP.
Don’t take care about Stephen Jones… PP is the best for Spain
Please stop telling tonterias…
Hemos trabajado en esta pelÃcula y estamos contentos de haberlo hecho porque para nosotros tiene un significado muy especial al haber estado involucrados durante mucho tiempo en temas socio laborales con Gibraltar.
El régimen de Franco hizo una canallada cerrando una frontera terrestre y separando a miles de personas que convivÃan, tanto a nivel familiar como social, laboral y comercial. Desde la creación de nuestra asociación tras la reapertura de la verja hemos trabajado siempre para que las relaciones entre los dos pueblos vecinos sean fructÃferas y de buena amistad y nos congratulamos por haber puesto nuestro granito de arena en la vida real y en esta pelÃcula.
Gran Director y Equipo de Profesionales y que decir de los artistas naturales y además sin maquillaje, tal y como somos. Enhorabuena por el éxito.
Salvador Molina y Juan José Uceda (actores colaboradores) de la Asociación Sociocultural de Trabajadores Españoles en Gibraltar. ASCTEG, La LÃnea, frontera con la amiga Gibraltar.
Vengo de un rodaje, arrastrando los pies y muerto de cansancio… Y me encuentro esto. Ay, madre mÃa, si es que vosotros hacéis que arrastrar todos los pies del mundo merezcan la pena.
Muchas gracias por depositar vuestra confianza en mà para contar vuestra historia. Estoy deseando tener la oportunidad de enseñarosla a todos.
Abrazos desde L.A.,
Raúl
Basta ver el trailer para entender que habéis realizado un gran trabajo. ¡Enhorabuena!
Guys!! Excellent work! Trailer looks fantastic. I am a Gibraltarian living in Barcelona!! I am already sending the link around to all my contacts! Look forward to seeing the movie on the big screen! Congratulations for a remarkable achievement!
Raul, a continuation t o this storywould be to do a documentary on what happened after the frontier was closed. Particularly the thousands of people who had to leave their families and go to places like London. a whole generation of people was born outside of la linea as a consequence of the border closing……..I havent seen the film yet so am not sure if it covers this massive migration and the consequences that it created…
It’s a shame that a film about recent Gibraltarian history wasn’t premiered in Gibraltar and that the people of Gibraltar cannot see the film due to the lack of local screenings. Please get this film shown in Gibraltar!
Yes, right? It is unbelievable how little interest there is in releasing this movie. Despite the awards, nominations and public acclaim, not a single investor has been willing to help to get this story out there. We won’t give up so easily, Gabrielle. If we have come all this way is because we believe that this story of Linenses and Gibraltarians must be told. Follow us on Facebook for upcoming news and spread the word to anyone who might be able to help us financially. Sooner or later, we will succeed. Thanks, Gabrielle.
speak to fabian picardo about this screening in gib im sure he will do something
Hi,
Is there any plan to release this in the UK?
Gib is an emotive issue here, everyone has a view about it and I think that it would be a popular film.
i really would like to see this … any idea where i can watch it?
Thanks
Hello Sarah, we are putting all our efforts in reaching an agreement that would allow the film to come out. Unfortunately, this requires time, work and tons of luck. But we will make it. I promise. Gracias por apoyarnos. Follow us on Facebook for upcoming news. Abrazos.
I live in Swindon (Wiltshire, UK) and I would like to see the film. How can this be done?
Hello Chris,
Thank you so much for your interest in our work. We would love to screen the film in the UK but we haven¹t found any distributors/theatres/etc that are interested. We are hopeful and keep working hard. If you happen to know any cinemas that might be interested in offering a screening, please share! That will make us really happy.
Follow us on Facebook to stay tuned on upcoming news. Thanks for your support, Chris.

From all your comments it seems that it is as always a question of who pays and puts the money up front/investors. Speak to the local authorities involved but you will get more from Gibraltar Government who are more solvent…………….thereafter just get on with it and release a DVD which I am sure that it will be purchased. Just give us a date for the DVD, say via Amazon.can’t wait any longer!
Hey Bill, thanks for your email and your advice. We finally signed a deal with a DVD distribution company! It happened a few days ago and I am just waiting for the release date to make it official. Stay tuned! 🙂
From: “comment-reply@wordpress.com” Reply-To:
Good news…at last! Now stop the teasing of “just waiting for the release date” and give us all an idea of when?. I intend to see my father in Gibraltar in early November and it would be good to take the DVD so that he can appreciate. He will be 88 years old and remembers the time when he married my spanish mother from la linea (LL). I am also from Gib (residing in the UK), married with a spanish lady from LL. The generation in LL need to recall the facts and this would be a good time as over the years there has unfortunately been so much misunderstanding affecting the present young generation. So come on give us an idea of when please.
Thanks.
Release the release date and stop us hanging around as you will lose our interest.
