The House with Seven Balconies (La casa de los siete balcones)

An ode to hope, love, innocence and illusion.

The house with seven balconies is a mansion in a small countryside town where the inhabitants go to mass every Sunday. Ramón lives in it. He is a widower, a gambler and a womanizer who spent away the fortune his wife left him. He lives with Genoveva (his sister in law), who lives in a world of fantasy since her husband went to America to seek fortune. Uriel (his son) is a weird teenager, weak and sickly, that will try and defend the family’s tradition and pride against Amanda’s influence (the housekeeper, and Ramon’s lover), who completely controls him. Ramón and Amanda are the antagonists of the story as they represent greed, ambition for power and lust; on the other hand, Genoveva and Uriel represent innocence, hope and love. There are also some great secondary characters: Rosina, Clara, Alicia, Don Germán and the Grandfather.

 

RELEVANT DATA: The House with Seven Balconies rises above the emotional character of Genoveva. The eternal youth of innocence, illuminates the only space from which turns a simple argument. Ambition and envy, before innocence and generosity. The material and rough world, facing the ethereal and sensitive worlds of Genoveva and Uriel.
