There is no freedom with hunger: Review the historical series La Catedral Del Mar

The historical series La Catedral del mar, which takes place during the construction,

Church of Santa Maria del Mar at the time of the Inquisition in Barcelona in the fourteenth century AD.

The eight-episode series was able to achieve great public success through its presentation on Netflix

It was agreed between them and the Spanish "Artemedia" to award television broadcasts to the television series of the series Atresmedia, a television brand Spanish novelist.

It is worth mentioning that the mass production was worth, it appeared in music, fashion, makeup and hair styling, everything was really wonderful.

Look inside the serial worlds

The series shows us the social discrimination and the ongoing struggle for freedom, justice and dignity for the poor, humiliation of those in power,

As well as revenge, love and betrayal, and religious intolerance in the Middle Ages, as well as the status of marginalized women at that time and how cruelty was

The basis for dealing with women, whether from the parents or the husband, the "Inquisition" and "nobles", all this is against the backdrop of the construction of a new Catholic church in honor of the Virgin,

The most famous church of today is Barcelona, ​​the church of Santa Maria del Mar, from 1329 to 1384. The church is a good example of the original Catalan Gothic architecture.

Journey of Arnaud

"If you are strong enough to carry stones, you will be one of us"

• in the words of "Ramon" the head of the workers

The main character of the series "Arnau Estanyol" sees his life and its paths coinciding with the construction of the church, and the role was played by a wonderful satanic actor "Aitor Luna".

Arnaud's life is an ongoing struggle for freedom, dignity and the lifting of humiliation for the poor. Arnaud, the orphaned boy who grows up and knows only his mother

The Virgin always calls her and resorts to her constantly, and highlights from here how the series may show us through the journey of the life of "Arnau" faith that the humble faith of the faithful triumph over the faith of ambition.

Love, betrayal, pain and suffering. That was the life of Arnaud, in which the events of the fourteenth century saw the wars, the black plague, the oppressive ruling class,

The slave trade, the Spanish Inquisition, and even religious fanaticism that rejects the presence of Muslims and Jews in the city.

Mother's misery

The actress Nathalie Poza played the role of Francesca, the mother of Arnaud,

Is a constant misery, starting from the night of her wedding, which we see how the treatment of women in the Middle Ages with the most brutal,

Let us take a look at the feudal lord's right on the first night of the bride, (the right we first heard of in Braveheart).

Francesca, despite all the violence and brutality in her life, and despite the painful turns of her life, she sees that in the end,

Francesca struggled to live, and despite the course of her life, she did not weaken or lose her strength, which eventually enabled her to protect her son, the son whom he had not known throughout his life and had never seen.

Brave father

"Bernat Estanyol", the father of Arnau, which was brilliantly presented by the actor Daniel Grao, "Bernat"

And then as a lover shattering his life on his wedding, to start a new life full of challenge and resistance, we see that when the Lord's men resisted to protect his wife,

And his escape to his son later to protect him from death, knowing that his behavior will make him chase from all the noblemen across the country, traveling through forests, rivers and mountains to reach

To the capital, but "Birnat" survived by hiding within the same bourgeois class that haunted him, carrying on all the cruelty of life .. Work as if there was no tomorrow to keep his son alive,

Finally, when he was granted freedom after many years of hiding, and although this did not allow him the great privileges of a free citizen, he defended his rights to the nobles of power

Without fear of what might happen to him, Bernat left Arnault with a big imprint that was the reason and then his direct motivation to fight for a fairer life.

Another point in favor of "Burnat", who despite his poverty and weary clothes did not hesitate to raise the friend of his son, to become responsible for providing food

Of two hungry children and even insisting on their education as well. The birth of Arnaud is the only and greatest joy in the life of Birnat

He also lived happy moments with Francesca at the beginning of their relationship, despite the tragic end.

the friendship

The series gives us another look at friendship, and how friendship can sometimes be another reason for hurting us and causing us the greatest pain, even if the act is to protect us.

We see this through the friendship of "Arnaud" and "Joan" deep from childhood, when he met "Arnau" old friend "Joan" through the streets of Barcelona,

Was another poor boy and his mother has been locked for years and all he sees is the fingers of her hand through the iron window, and boys have become closer to the brothers,

To clash during their journey in life with some men called "Bastixos"

They are the builders who are carrying stones from a quarry on their backs to build a magnificent cathedral dedicated to the Virgin of the Sea

Then the lovers of the Virgin are the boys without mother, is accepted "Arnau" in the union by bastaixos,

While John is granted priestly education by the priests for his desire to become a priest dedicated to serving the Virgin.

the love

Another sight this time about love in the Middle Ages, the love of the father of "Arnaud" and his mother, which was not completed because of the control of the nobles to the poor, as well as the love of "Arnaud" Jr.

"Arnaud," who twice loved his life and yet married another girl he did not love and did not treat her at all, and that

May be the first and blackest point in Arnaud's life, and because of it he ran away to participate in the war.

"Andrea Duro" played the role of "Aldis", a rebellious woman by nature, a teenage love for Arnaud,

A provocative and totally unpopular figure, and yet we have only human sympathy for her because of the cruelty of her father

And then her husband, and even what is exposed to him afterwards by insisting on finding "Arnau" who is on the other side fights leaving his wife behind him,

However, it does not matter "Aldis" she likes and sees that the natural is her presence beside "Arnaud", and despite the tragic end of her journey, but she was a real love, she then played a role with Arnaud's mother to save him.

"Michelle Jenner" The actress with the kind features was very suitable for the role of "mar mar" true love

Of Arnaud, the orphan girl who was involved in the Church of the Virgin in the church that was built, to persuade the priest to take her under his wing to protect her, to enlarge

In her shadow and grow up with her love for him, which makes her refuse to marry what she carries in her heart towards him, to come from "Arnaud" after that what you never expected him, and that is the second black point in the life of "Arnau."

La Catedral Del Mar series is an attempt to determine the moment of transformation in Catalan history, from a special perspective focused on Barcelona,

Where the series shows the Catalan history between "La Vega" and "La Nueva" Catalonia, the most exciting elements in the story of "Arnaud"

Allow us to explore the remarkable shift in relations between the various social sectors and the often violent consequences, and to increase the social mobility that has emerged as a result.

The story of La Catedral Del Mar is cruel and painful. It tells of a time when justice was not the right thing for people

The treatment of women was not the best, and this calls for saying that the series, although worthy of the experience of viewing, but inappropriate

At all for those with weak hearts and exposed to high blood pressure, because it contains scenes of brutality, violence and blood.
