El médico de Benevento: de la Medicina a la laica Santidad

Abstract

This miniseries treating on the Benevento’s physician Giuseppe Moscati, barely known in Latin America, though simple from a screen standpoint, may become highly enlightening for students in relation with their unavoidable acquisition of key values for medical practice. Moreover, in the context of a postmodern and technologic society seeming having misplaced or lost those values.
Going by from his graduation during 1903 to his death, occurred in 1927, the film, exceeding religious beliefs and the professional future conceived by medical students, melodramatically sets out a touching behavioral contrast through the mixture of real and fictional events. Thus, the prepared spectator may decide to face his/her professional and quotidian life with principles which, in the end, may result improving for the whole society.
