Singling out the boy as his intimate disciple, installing him in his palatial private quarters and redubbing him “Sacramento Santos,” Father Ángel begins Julian’s instruction into the mysteries of “perfect obedience,” whose cardinal rule is: Never question a superior’s actions.

Howl
2010

All three coalesce in a genre-bending hybrid that brilliantly captures a pivotal moment-the birth of a counterculture.
