The novel “Your Honor” (1991) by the outstanding Catalan writer Jaume Cabret was created long before his famous “I Confess.” But even then the writer was worried about the theme of the powerful, judicial corruption and absolute power, for which there is only the right of the strong. Winter 1799. In Barcelona it doesn't stop raining, the city seems paralyzed, and yet social life is in full swing. It seems that the aristocrats are only concerned with how to celebrate the advent of the new, nineteenth century. The Te Deum is performed in the cathedral, and a series of social receptions take place in luxurious halls... But the festive atmosphere is overshadowed by the strange murder of a French singer. A young poet who accidentally found himself “in the wrong place at the wrong time” was arrested. He was unconditionally found guilty, especially since he he discovered documents that could lead to the downfall of “your honor” - Don Rafel Massot, President of the Supreme Court. It is known that this man, endowed with the power to execute or pardon, has one weakness: he adores beautiful women.
