This contribution analyzes the film Handia (2017), which uses Basque as main language (L1) and includes several secondary languages (L3) with different presence in the film. The objective is to know how different versions of the film have dealt with multilingualism and if the functions identified in the original product (Tamayo and Manterola, 2019) are maintained. Translation procedures used for the multilingual scenes are analyzed in the subtitled versions in Basque, Spanish and English, the subtitled version in Spanish for deaf and hard of hearing and the dubbed and audio-described versions in Spanish. The case study concludes that all versions are multilingual but some features of the version without extra-diegetic translation are eliminated, such as marking otherness, showing the identity (and evolution) of the characters and producing humor.
