Un señor muy viejo con unas alas enormes (1988)
Un hombre mayor con alas se desplace durante una tormenta tropical en esta fantasía simbólica. El viejo aterriza cerca de una isla caribeña donde una familia pobre le da refugio en un gallinero. El padre Gonzaga es el sacerdote escéptico que se apresura a condenar a la criatura. Pronto, el viejo es objeto de buscadores de curiosidad cuando Elisinda y Pelayo comienzan a cobrar la admisión. Un carnaval viajero de rarezas humanas acampa cerca del viejo mientras la gente acude en masa para ver el espectáculo. El viejo se reduce a ser una mascota no deseada, y después de seis años, repara sus alas y vuela. La desnudez, el sexo simulado con una mujer araña, y la fealdad de la explotación humana definitivamente ponen esta fantasía en una categoría no para niños.
