L'Auberge espagnole - Barcelona for a year (Blu-ray)

The 25-year-old economics student Xavier goes to Barcelona for a year to complete his studies. At the same time, he wants to improve his Spanish, as he has a lucrative job opportunity at the Paris Ministry of Economy and Finance. After a painful breakup with his long-term girlfriend Martine, Xavier finally arrives in Barcelona and finds himself in a multilingual shared apartment with six other students from all over Europe. For all of them, this marks the beginning of a turbulent year filled with love and conflict, joy and pain, and above all: the search for their individual life paths. In short: a year that completely turns their lives, which are just beginning, upside down.

Cédric Klapisch's lively ensemble comedy captures the spirit of the Erasmus generation with great ease and humor, featuring an international cast, and has since reached cult status. The story continues in the two subsequent films with the same cast: five years later, the group reunites for a wedding in St. Petersburg, before the trilogy concludes in the adult life in New York.
