Maravillas is a 1981 Spanish film directed by Manuel Gutiérrez Aragón. It was entered into the 31st Berlin International Film Festival.

Synopsis

Maravillas, une adolescente madrilène vit avec son père, un photographe veuf et sans travail. Afin d'assouvir ses fantasmes sexuels, ce dernier lui dérobe son argent. Fort heureusement, la jeune fille peut compter sur la protection de ses parrains - trois Juifs séfarades - qui ne cessent de la gâter. Mais, celui qu'elle préfère est l'oncle Salomon qui, « comme dans un conte de fées, l'a délivrée de la peur en lui remettant un anneau le jour de sa première communion, et en lui demandant d'oser marcher sur le bord de la terrasse qui surplombe la rue. » C'est, précisément, lors d'une des démonstrations de l'oncle Salomon qu'elle fait la connaissance de Chessman, un garçon dont elle s'amourache. Celui-ci lui présente sa bande de copains avec qui elle va commettre de petits méfaits. Plus tard, Maravillas est impliquée dans le vol d'une émeraude et de complicité criminelle.

The year is 1931. Spain is politically divided between Republicans and Traditionalists and on the verge of the Spanish Second Republic. Fernando, a young soldier, deserts. He befriends Manolo (Fernando Fernán Gómez), an old man with a large house in the country. Fernando meets and is enchanted by Manolo's four daughters. As he meets each of the first three one by one, he falls in love and has sex with each of them, determining to marry but with each one a complication arises: Clara (Miriam Díaz-Aroca), a widow who only recently lost her husband and who seeks solace with Fernando; Violeta (Ariadna Gil), a lesbian who is only attracted to Fernando when he is dressed as a woman for a costume ball and Rocío (Maribel Verdú), a social climber who is about to marry into a royalist family for the security it would provide and who only momentarily succumbs to Fernando's charms. Heartbroken each time, the father of the girls encourages him to have patience. Each of the daughters is beautiful and represents a different aspect of feminine sexuality. The youngest of the family, Luz (Penélope Cruz), represents naïveté. While Fernando is pursuing her sisters, Luz gets progressively angry and jealous but eventually Fernando realizes that she is the best one of the four to marry.
