The fictional Father Ángel de la Cruz is based on Legion of Christr founder Marcial Maciel, whose long history of child abuse was notr addressed until 2006 and only publicly acknowledged in 2009.r But director Luis Urquiza chooses to structure his film through ther largely uncomprehending, wondering eyes of 13-year-old Julián, whor travels from the arms of his loving pastoral family into the austere,r hallowed halls of the seminary. Singling out the boy as his intimater disciple, installing him in his palatial private quarters and redubbingr him “Sacramento Santos,” Father Ángel begins Julian’s instructionr into the mysteries of “perfect obedience,” whose cardinal rule is:r Never question a superior’s actions.
