MEXICO – The first season of the Mexican series “Holy Child” introduced viewers to the eternal debate between science and faith through the story of three doctors facing the possible existence of a person able to heal people miraculously.
In his second season, the series is intended to serve as a channel to address the questions of expressions of faith openly on Mexican television.
producer Pablo Cruz said that to be a series and broadcast on public budgets with a public television broadcast could serve to generate a dialogue on faith in Mexico.
“In our country there is an absence of bold content, lack of content … That bold bet a channel that helps producers that we can have a window there where people can see the same productions” of this type , is “very important,” Cruz said Wednesday at a press conference to present the second season of the series to be released in Mexico on Friday.
eight episodes of the new season had a cost of 15 million pesos (just over a million dollars) and will be broadcast on Canal Once, a major public television stations in Mexico and later in the U.S. and Latin America.
Starring Karla Souza, José María de Tavira and Francisco de la Reguera, the second season of the series will follow the adventures of the trio of doctors and the existence of a person who is supposedly able to perform medical miracles.
The series, a co-production between the channel and CANANA, owned by Cruz and stars Gael Garcia and Diego Luna, is inspired by the legend of Niño Fidencio, one of the most famous religious and cultural events in Mexico in the early 1930 and whose tradition still lingers in the north.
its protagonists involved in a story that invites reflection on faith, can cause discomfort in some public, but also encourage a variety of ways to address these issues.
“This leads to the television series and perhaps an issue that people are going to open a dialogue with the family, although it is fiction, we are not trying to educate people and instill a mindset,” Souza told The Associated Press. “It’s a series that instills question, question how much you trust when medicine is a business, and what you can both rely on faith when it is a business too,” he added.
actress “We the nobles” noted that even has run his family’s refusal to participate in a series of this type.
“I’ve had responses from people nearby and looks a little offended when they see this show, not even my family have been very happy with my participation in this series, but I explain what precisely is taboo subjects is we have to talk at home, “revealed the actress.
Although in recent years, Mexican television has incorporated contemporary issues such as drug trafficking, political corruption and series productions, films and soap operas, rarely the subject of faith and religious beliefs touches.
“for public television this is a successful venture, because we have a good product, which has the reputation, and well-worn themes with Mexican roots,” said Enriqueta Cabrera, director of Canal Once, at a press conference.
José María de Tavira long held that a number of their comfort zone to religious theme.
“This privilege is given to the issue of religion as untouchable is something we have already transcend the world,” De Tavira said in an interview with the AP.
“This sacred place that give the religion of ‘do not go questioning the beliefs of the people because it will disturb’, we must transcend and instead (thinking): What kind of faith is that which is not question, “added the actor, who is also preparing for the Fox series that he is” very ambitious, very big. “
