El fin de un sacerdote

A charming story of a church caretaker to whom fate provides the opportunity to pose as a vicar in an obscure mountain village. With personable and rare sympathy for human weakness, he fulfills his role to the general satisfaction of a village longing for spiritual comfort. It's as if this false priest has breathed new life into the villagers and thus changes the absurd image of this idyllic village. In a hectic conclusion full of intrigue and plot twists, he gives into the temptation that has surrounded him. The film deals with tolerance as one of the basic conditions necessary for one's full and undistorted personal fulfillment and for human happiness in this world, as well as belief in honesty, decency, fairness and love as values that are the foundation for everything that makes sense.
