Description

Nela (Sillón Orejero) is a critical analysis of life in rural Spain during the 19th century, whose ills continue to exist in contemporary Spanish society. Rayco Pulido's adaptation of Benito Pérez Galdós' work explores the complexities of human relationships and societal issues.

The novel tells the story of Marianela, a young orphan with limited physical attributes, who falls in love with Pablo, a blind man from a comfortable social position. Their romance is built on Nela's vivid descriptions and Pablo's father's readings, leading to a promise of a life together. However, this fantasy is ultimately unattainable.

Pulido has successfully maintained the original novel's tone and analysis, including its critique of 19th-century Spanish society's flaws such as prejudice, superstition, and social inequality, which still persist in modern times.
