Synopsis

La historia de un mìstico jesuita que confundìa intensidades eróticas con éxtasis divinosSu enemigo, un dominico inquisidor, nos cuenta esta historia basándose en la confesión manuscrita del jesuita, encontrada en una librerìa judìa de Parìs.

Los dos personajes de ficciones se basan en apasionantes personajes históricos: un exorcista de monjas y un disidente de la inquisición.

La duda es el centro magnético de este relato en el que enemistad y simpatìa, historia y ficción, bien y mal, se besan y se funden. Porque, como una boca poseìda nos advierte: "en la noche sin nombres, sin orillas; en la noche muda de nuestro cuerpo, aguardan siempre impacientes los demonios de la lengua".

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The story of a Jesuit mystic who mistook erotic intensities for divine ecstasies

His enemy, a Dominican inquisitor, recounts this story based on the Jesuit's handwritten confession, found in a Jewish bookshop in Paris.

The two fictional characters are inspired by fascinating historical figures: an exorcist of nuns and a dissident of the Inquisition.

Doubt is the magnetic center of this tale, in which enmity and sympathy, history and fiction, good and evil, kiss and merge. For, as a possessed mouth warns us: "In the nameless, shoreless night; in the speechless night of our bodies, the demons of the tongue always wait, impatient."
