Description

In homage to the origins of the city, plays depicting the life and death of Christ in Catalan (the original dialectic language) take place. The historical center of the city is draped in red which filters the light to cast an eerie and heavy spiritual feeling on the crumbling walls. Parades featuring a weary Christ and a Madonna clad in black are the highlights of the weeklong series of events.
