Jenaro, el de los 14
The cunning and charismatic con artist Jenaro operates in early-1970s Madrid, skillfully swindling gullible citizens with his signature scheme. His grift is simple yet brilliant: he presents himself as the man who can solve any problem for the modest sum of fourteen pesetas. From minor domestic troubles to family dramas, he has a 'magical' solution for everyone, which usually turns out to be a clever trick. His journey becomes a parade of comedic situations, unexpected twists, and encounters with the colorful characters of the Spanish capital, where naivety and a thirst for miracles provide fertile ground for his exploits.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
This 1974 film is a classic of Spanish situational comedy, where the protagonist is not a villain but a folk trickster mocking human gullibility. His cons, built around the number 14, become a mirror for a society willing to pay for the illusion of a simple fix.
What lingers after the final frame is the charm of a bygone Madrid and the playful satire that feels both specific and universal. It’s a lighthearted farce with a subtle, knowing wink. — MovieFinder Editorial
