The production of the film biography of Saint Ignatius, El capitán de Loyola, during the early years of Franco’s regime, took place in a propitious environment for its realisation, with up to four possible film projects coinciding in less than ten years. Although the film does not explicitly adapt a previous work of fiction, it is possible to trace the sources that inspired its plot. These sources, some fictional, others academic, all embedded in popular imagery, allow us to trace a coherent line from the death of the saint in the 16th century to the date of the film’s release. Thus, we propose to analyse its plot from the historical and narrative aspects.
