Isla Bonita (2015) is a Spanish comedy-drama directed by Fernando Colomo, who also stars in the film. Set on the idyllic holiday island of Menorca, the movie explores themes of love, relationships, and self-discovery through the lens of its protagonists: Olivia, her mother Nuria, and Fernando. The film is semi-autobiographical for Colomo and serves as a charming homage to Menorca while being filled with misunderstandings and comedic situations.
