DramaHorrorMysterymexicomexican revolutionsurrealismmagical objectcatholic priestlast ritesinterlinked stories
A surreal, spiritually charged horror tale woven through interconnected stories about faith, doubt, and a cursed sacred object in revolutionary Mexico.
A woman who is about to die calls the town's priest and hands him a scapulary, saying that she knows of its great powers. Anybody who does not believe in them will end up dead.
