Le fils de Marie

Le fils de Marie (1973) is a drama film directed by Jacinto Esteva.

An absurd gathering of venerable congressmen convenes in a decadent hotel, immediately followed by a young couple’s intimate discussion about their desire to bring a child into the world. Interwoven with echoes of the Virgin Mary’s evangelical story, the film probes the moral and existential responsibility of procreation. Opposing this is an entrenched aristocratic order, symbolized by the deadly sins, which resists the aspirations and fresh ideas of youth.
