Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo, popularly known as Los Javis, presented their latest series La Mesías yesterday out of competition. Written, directed and produced by the aforementioned Javis, the project is possibly the most ambitious and complex project created to date by the creators of numerous successful TV series. It deals with overcoming trauma, faith as a tool to fill the existential void and art as an antidote to horror.
With references to Mustang, Elephant, Nobody knows, The Spirit of the Beehive, the Virgin Suicides and the Brontë sisters, the series consists of eight episodes which contain a mixture of genres conditioned by a dark disturbing perspective running through the entire narrative.
The viral video of a Christian pop group made up of several sisters has an enormous impact on the life of Enric, a man tormented by a childhood marked by religious fanaticism and the yoke of a mother suffering from messianic delusions. Taking all this as a starting point the series reflects on different forms of belief and criticises all forms of oppressive power. “We were especially interested in the subject of isolation and two essential questions: rigid beliefs and art,” Calvo explained.
