Carol and her mother was on their way to Spain to see her family. Her mother was Spanish and her father was American. They lived in New York, her father was off at war. In the beginning you could see that when the Mother started smoking on the train that it was not right by the way the little boy and the priest looked at her. Carol saw this and the Mother just smiled. Once they get to the train station she meets her Grandpa and they are off in a horse and buggie. On the way Carol sees this boy Tomiche shoot a bird and kill it. Carol screams at him and he takes her hat. He calls her a name. Carol looks and acts like a tomboy. One night Carol sees her mom pay to have a letter sent to her husband and Carol takes note. The next day while Carols mom is out side she sneaks and reads the letter from her dad. This makes her happy. Carol runs out to find her mom dead. Carol goes to live with her Aunt and cousins and also becomes friends with the local boys and Tomiche. They have a crush on each other. One day it is Carols birthday and there is a plane flying over and everyone starts freaking out and Carol starts screaming that is her Dad. He drops a present from the plane for Carol for her birthday. While off playing Carol sees a truck with a lot off men in it and later she hears gun fire. Carols dad comes to see her and the police start looking for him. Carol and Tomiche start looking for him too, Tomiche goes to find him and tries to help him escape. Carol sees all of this and she sees the cops take aim at her dad and she starts screaming and the cop shoot Tomiche. He is dead. At the end it shows Carol and the Grandpa leaving and she is telling everyone good bye. I wondered what happened to the dad in the end. Carol sees allot of different things different from the American culture where she was from. The war, smoking, calling her a Yankee and even death. I would like to see this movie with the subtitles.
