kill the king it's a thriller historical with a very well constructed script that moves between Agatha Christie and Game of thrones to invent a plausible explanation (that is not true) about the expulsion of the Jews from a Spain governed by the Catholic Monarchs in 1492. King Henry IV of Castile has died under strange circumstances, solo, tormented and surrounded by wolves in court armed with reasons to kill him. Everyone suspects everyone and the king's only heir is a bastard. Unleash the thriller! The king is powerless (he is not turned on by women, rather), which gives rise to gossip about the legitimacy of his daughter to the throne and gives free rein to the most malevolent conspiracies to seize power.. his wife, the queen, despises him, and they maintain a romantic relationship with Mr. Beltrán de la Cueva, former private of the king and also his lover. The king's sister, Princess Isabel of Castile secretly married to Ferdinand of Aragon, He aspires to sit on the throne, bypassing his sister-in-law and his niece to unite the two kingdoms into one.. The only noble character in the whole mess is the Jew Jacob, doctor and confessor of the king who is trying to cure him of his sexual languor. He is the one who guides us through all this history that, between jumps in time, recreates all the events and the interrogations that are being carried out to discover who killed the monarch. He will also have to go up to testify in a Castile inhabited by three religions that, with its tightness, they live together that way. Anti -Semitism, Greed and ambition rub shoulders in this play about the struggle for power. S.M.
