El Circo de los Muchachos
UpcomingDocumentary show
The docuseries taps into the incredible story of Father Jesús Silva, known as "el Cura," who created a city and educational project for street children without resources in Benposta, a small neighborhood in the suburbs of Ourense (Galicia) during Franco's dictatorship in Spain in 1956. Silva created a nation of boys, with its own currency and passport, governed by children under the approval of the Francoist government and church. Over time, Benposta became a town steeped in art, education, and enthusiasm, and Silva founded "El Circo de los Muchachos," a fascinating show that took these children without resources around the world impressing audiences with their circus skills, ending up performing at New York's Madison Square Garden.
