Synopsis
Fernando is a young postulant who has fallen in love with the “favorite” mistress of the King of Castile, Alfonso XI. Illustrated by a beautiful libretto, this love triangle unfolds in Spain during the power struggles between church and state and their uprisings. Veronica Simeoni fully and intensely embodies Leonora de Guzman, never overplaying but with incredible sensibility.
