THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: literary and general
Synopsis A luminary of Mexican theater, Luisa Josefina Hernández explores the various roles that have been directly and indirectly imposed on the middle class and on women, immersing her characters in an atmosphere of machismo. Such is the case in Las confesiones, which, over four episodes, chronicles the various stages of the love that a certain Paco Macedo professes for María Esther Albanes, whom he both idolizes and hates. Luisa Josefina Hernández’s narrative demonstrates how, in much of Mexican society, there is no place for women who attempt to challenge imposed stereotypes.
