The idea is to tell the story of a priest who works in a church, where one day an actress falls who has not slept for days. He can't stop acting. He's going through a kind of paranoid outbreak and he thinks everyone is acting. He contains her and they see each other again, the beginning of a very strong romance. She introduces him to a world of excesses and confusions, very passionate. And he transforms into a priest similar to the protagonist of A Damn Policeman. Well, maybe not as dark, but erratic. And he gives some super lucid masses but they don't end anymore, like Klaus Kinski when he did theater. That is why the Church expels him and sends him to work with the miners of Potosí, where you can buy a pack of cigarettes and dynamite in the same place.
Unfortunately the movie la nueva de luis is not yet available on HBO Max.
