What happens

Rosa y negro es una película franco-española dirigida, escrita y protagonizada por Gérard Jugnot. Definida por sus creadores como "una comedia sobre la intolerancia", "Rosa y negro" se traslada a la España del siglo XVI para recordar que hace poco tiempo se mataba a judíos, musulmanes y homosexuales en nombre de Dios. Una idea que, aunque se desarrolla con mucho humor y fantasía, puede resultarle cercano al espectador de hoy en día. La idea de Jugnot era hablar con ligereza de asuntos graves, y hacerlo recordando las viejas comedias de capa y espada, amparadas por un colorido diseño de producción.​ (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
