Hola amigos, nuevamente les traigo una super reseña, aunque en esta ocasión no será de una serie de entretenimiento o una película. Sino que se trata de una serie-documental titulada como “Sé dócil, reza y obedece” (en español), estrenada este año en Netflix.
Hello friends, once again I bring you a super review, although this time it won't be of an entertainment series or a movie. Rather it is about a documentary series titled as "Keep Sweet: pray and obey", released this year on Netflix.
SYNOPSIS
I didn't know. I had heard about Mormons and in my family they had a very bad reputation. I understand that one of the reasons is the confusion between the two doctrines which have many differences but also similarities in beliefs.
- Rulon Jeffs (Padre)
- Warren Jeffs (hijo)
Las historias de ellos nos darán arcadas durante toda la serie, o al menos a mí me las generó.
The miniseries shows us the restrictions, the lifestyle, the different polygamy practices, and the abusive practices that the fundamentalists do, many times, in the name of God. It also tells us about their two main leaders (although I prefer to call them monsters):
- Rulon Jeffs (Father)
- Warren Jeffs (Son)
Their stories will make us gag throughout the series, or at least it did for me.

“Las mujeres están sujetas a sus maridos como al señor”, Efesios 5:22, es el versículo con el que se da inicio al documental. Y es, sin duda alguna, un preaviso de lo que veremos.
En el primer capítulo no se entiende muy bien cómo va la historia, no está en un orden cronológico, o al menos no parece así. Se nos van contando cosas que no entendemos mucho. Pero algo que agradezco mucho y que estuve buscando, son los videos y fotografías de los fundamentalistas. Pensé que eran representaciones, pero al parecer son videos reales. Eso les da un plus a los episodios.

Sin embargo volveré a señalar lo del orden, para quien no conoce del tema, como yo, se puede perder en la historia. En los últimos dos capítulos se vuelven a colocar algunas declaraciones que vimos en los primeros episodios pero esta vez contextualizados en tiempo y espacio. Hacemos entonces click con lo que se nos contó.
Ahora bien, los episodios cuentan con la narración de personas que fueron parte de los fundamentalistas. Entre ellos, se encuentran varias víctimas de abuso sexual, poligamia, pedofilia, sometimiento, manipulación…
CHAPTER

Wives are subject to their husbands as to the Lord, Ephesians 5:22, is the verse with which the documentary begins. And it is, without a doubt, a forewarning of what we will see.
The truth is that I played this series with the greatest innocence in the world. I didn't know what I was watching, I chose it because of the title and the thumbnail. I am very attracted to documentaries and more if they are retro, the thumbnail had that VHS effect and with the grated and covered face of a girl, so I thought it would be about some crime or something like that. For that reason I found myself lost in time and space in the first two chapters. In the first chapter you don't really understand how the story goes, it's not in a chronological order, or at least it doesn't seem that way. We are being told things that we don't really understand. But something that I really appreciate and that I was looking for, are the videos and photographs of the fundamentalists. I thought they were representations, but apparently they are real videos. That gives the episodes a plus.

However, I will point out again the order, for those who are not familiar with the subject, as I am, can get lost in the story. In the last two chapters some statements that we saw in the first episodes are put back in context in time and space. We then click with what we were told.
Now, the episodes have the narration of people who were part of the fundamentalists. Among them, there are several victims of sexual abuse, polygamy, pedophilia, subjugation, manipulation...

¿RECOMIENDO VER LA SERIE?
Admiro la valentía de quienes participaron en el documental dando su testimonio. Porque nos explicaron cómo se vive el amor, la familia, el matrimonio, hasta la niñez en este tipo de sectas.
DO I RECOMMEND WATCHING THE SERIES?
Of course, I think it is a duty for us to know how evil operates in the world so that it does not keep repeating itself. Además de que nos nutre y nos abre los ojos sobre el horror en el que viven algunas personas, nos pone en alerta a nosotros mismos. I admire the courage of those who participated in the documentary by giving their testimony. Because they explained to us how love, family, marriage and even childhood are lived in this type of sects.
