En Nombre de la Fe
Discovery en Español premieres on Sunday, April 1 at 9pm its original production, En Nombre de la Fe (In the Name of Faith), a gripping historical documentary that analyzes and brings to life the actions of the Holy Inquisition in Latin America. To illustrate one of the Catholic Church’s darkest chapters and be able to interpret this in the context of the times and historical circumstances, En Nombre de la Fe uses powerful dramatizations, images obtained from historical archives, interviews with experts, and visits to the sites of the controversial institution’s three courts in the New Continent: Mexico City, Lima, and Cartagena. The documentary also depicts the treatment of those accused of being pagans, such as Carlos de Texcoco and Mateo Salado whose convictions were used to teach the people a lesson and provoked discontent among the local communities.En Nombre de la Fe is an original production by Discovery en Español under the direction of Michela Giorelli, Rafael Rodríguez and Irune Ariztoy. It was created by Zodiak Latino production house under the executive production of Verónica Montali and Harris Whitbeck. Also in April and during Holy Week, Discovery en Español will broadcast two new series that delve into the scientific and historical aspects of religious events. These two specials are: La Ciencia del Pecado – (The Science of Sin) Monday through Friday, April 2-6 at 10pm and ¿Quién fue Jesús? – (Who was Jesus?) Sunday, April 8, at 9pm.
