Fe, esperanza y caridad (1974) on Netflix

Plot summary

A pilgrimage, a crucifixion act and a bureaucratic errand make up the three parts, one for each word of the title. In the first, a woman travels to a distant town to ask God for a miracle for her husband, who is sick and dying at home. In the second, a man agrees to be nailed to a cross as the centerpiece of a circus act showing the crucifixion, hoping to help his mother, but he cannot pay for the silver nails. In the third, Eulogia, a poor woman, asks for help from those in authority and finds none, while a childish fight involving her son brings her into conflict.
