Based on a play of the same name by Ramón del Valle-Inclán.
From case cover:
1920. España ya no es un país colonial. Ahora conviven en él, mal avenidos, el guardia civil y el mendigo, el cura aldeano y la bruja, el embaucador y el enano, el militar y el anarquista, Don Quijote y Don Juan... Una sociedad deforme.
Y dentro de España, Galicia. Donde todos las placeres tienen regustos paganos y todas las fiestas liturgias latinas. Patria de la avaricia, la lujuria y la muerte. Cantera inagotable de emigrantes a América. Y tema central de "Divinas Palabras": un relato donde magia y pecado, amor y miseria, risa y crueldad conviven en armonía.
From IMDb:
A work of Valle-Inclán, the story takes place in Galicia in the early twentieth century. To escape poverty, the wife of a sacristan uses a hydrocephalic child as a sideshow attraction. This causes a confrontation with her sister-in-law.
