Comedy, Fantasy. Directed by Pablo Guerrero
Boomerang TV, the successful television production company known for hits such as THE MYSTERIES OF LAURA, presents DIVINE PUNISHMENT, a comedy with fantastical touches that marks the feature film debut of director Pablo Guerrero, after a long television career. Fast-paced, irreverent, and feel-good, with sharp dialogue and hints of surrealism, the film stars Juan Dávila, one of Spain’s most popular comedians, in his leap to the big screen, and features a special appearance by Lolita, Goya Award winner and artistic heir to Lola Flores.
At 35, Pedro is completely antisocial, ruthless, and close to being a psychopath. He works as a nurse in a hospital, making life miserable for his coworkers, dealing drugs, and running illegal poker games. One day, a mysterious patient he always argues with dies beside him and leaves him a magical book that turns him into a kind of angel with supernatural powers. At first, he uses his powers for his own benefit, but he starts to realize that helping others isn’t so bad after all.
