In 'Crims: Pecats Capitals', Carles Porta explores the depths of human nature through seven real stories where the motive for the crime is intertwined with the capital sins: pride, greed, lust, wrath, gluttony, envy, and sloth. Described by Dante in the Divine Comedy and rooted in Christian tradition, these vices manifest in shocking cases such as the kidnapping of Mélodie Nakachian, the crime at the Esclat supermarket, the disappearance of a baby in Canovelles, the Febamar case, the cannibal of Ventas, the Shaolin monk from Bilbao, and the murder of Isidre Matas. What passions drive us? Why do we kill?
Carles Porta i Gaset is a Catalan journalist, producer, director, screenwriter and writer, specialized in crime journalism and investigation.
