Description:
For centuries, the historical records of the Inquisition have been locked away to become the subject of myth and legend. In 1998, after years of pressure from historians, scholars and critics in search of the truth, the Vatican opened some of these archives for the first time.
$3-million-plus international co-production was filmed in High Definition on location in Italy, France and Spain. It was produced and directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker David Rabinovitch, and features narration by actor Colm Feore (Trudeau).
Earned a Gemini Award in the Documentary, News and Sports categories.
David Rabinovitch received the Gemini Award for Best Direction in a Documentary Series for his work on “Tears of Spain,” the second episode of the four-part series.
This four-part series attempts to reveal the incredible yet true story of the western world's most potent religion and its determination to maintain power at any cost. Using previously secret documents, this series reveals how the most powerful church on earth created the Inquisition to preserve the unquestioned authority of the Pope. Interviews with church and secular historians as well as dramatic recreations convey how a system of mass terror reigned for over half a millennium.
Filmed in High Definition, this production spans medieval France in Episode 1, 15th century Spain in Episode 2, Renaissance Italy in Episode 3 and mid-nineteenth century Europe in Episode 4.

Inquisitors are sent to exterminate the heresies by hunting down the condemning believers to burn at the stake. 1308 the entire village of Montaillou is taken prisoner of the Inquisition. No one is safe - not even the village priest and the chatelaine of its castle. From the secret files - the extraordinary revelations of village life under the Inquisition are revealed.

Spain 1468 - A land where Christians, Muslims and Jews have lived in tolerance for centuries. That time is ending. A young King and Queen proclaim themselves Catholic Monarchs and start an Inquisition. Jews who had converted to Christianity are accused of secretly sabotaging the Christian faith. They become the pawns in a game of chess with dire consequences. Thousands perish in a ritual called the act of faith. In Zaragossa, the inquisitor is assassinated - setting off a wave of reprisals.

Respecto a tu pregunta, bueno, la historia que cuenta el primer episodio daría para un excelente documental, o también podría servir de base a un interesante filme de ficción. El cura sátiro, la viúda librepensadora, el inquisidor opresor, el pastor libertario, los cátaros irreductibles ... pero, ay, no es éste el caso.
