La semana santa ya está en marcha. Entre las fotos de imágenes religiosas que salen a las calles llevadas a hombros por los costaleros, han llegado hoy también múltiples representaciones vivientes del Via Crucis y crucifixión de Cristo. Recreaciones históricas de lo que pudo ser aquel acontecimiento más o menos conseguidas dependiendo del lugar. Pero las imágenes más impactantes nos llegan de Filipinas donde se llegan a clavar literalmente en la cruz. Una auténtica locura.

Tened en cuenta que algunas de las imágenes pueden herir vuestra sensibilidad...
