Essay:

Moncho juega un papel primordial, y cambia mucho durante la
película, para lo bien y también para lo mal. El desarrollo de Moncho es
vital y Cuerda lo usa esto para demostrar el proceso de la madurez y el
fin de la niñez. Al principio, Moncho es totalmente inocente, pero esto
cambia cuando el protagonista de “La Lengua de Las Mariposas”
descubre el mundo adulto.

(Moncho plays an essential role, and changes a lot during the film for
good and for bad. The development of Moncho is essential and Cuerda uses
this to demonstrate the process of maturing and the end of childhood. At the
start Moncho is totally innocent, but this changes when the protagonist of “La
Lengua de Las Mariposas” discovers the adult world.)

Al principio de la película, Moncho es un niño muy tímido. Esto se
debe, sin duda, al hecho de que el chico ha pasado mucho tiempo en
casa a causa de su asma. Como resultado, “Es como un gorrión y esta
es la primera vez que sale del nido”. Tiene miedo de don Gregorio ya
que piensa que todos los maestros golpean a los alumnos. Sin embargo,
estos personajes desarrollan una amistad fundamental durante la
película. También, es un chico muy curioso, cuyo sueño es “subir a un
barco” a América. Este objetivo simboliza la libertad y la esperanza de la

, niñez. Se podría decir que Moncho no tiene sus propias ideas al
principio de la película, dado que cree todo lo que Rosa y el cura dicen
sobre la vida de más allá y la religión, pero (con la ayuda de don
Gregorio) aprende a preguntar más a menudo. Esto es evidente cuando
Moncho pregunta a Rosa sobre la religión de su padre. Es esencial que
esta libertad sea obvia al principio de la película, porque no existe al
final. Al fin de la película, Moncho no pregunta nada, porque no tiene la
libertad de expresión que tenía al principio.

(At the start of the film, Moncho is a very shy child. This is due, without
a doubt, to the fact that the child has passed a lot of time at home because of
his asthma. As a result, “he is like a sparrow and this is the first time that he is
leaving the nest”. He is scared of don Gregorio since he thinks that all
teachers hit their students. However, these characters develop an important
friendship during the film. As well as this, he is a very curious boy, whose
dream is “to take a boat” to America. This goal symbolises the freedom and
hope of childhood. It could be said that Moncho doesn’t have his own ideas at
the start of the film, given that he believes everything that Rosa and the priest
say about the afterlife and religion, but (with the help of don Gregorio) he
learns to question more often. This is evident when Moncho asks Rosa about
his father’s religion. It’s essential that this freedom be obvious at the start of
the film, because it doesn’t exist at the end. At the end of the film, Moncho
doesn’t ask anything, because he doesn’t have the freedom of speech that he
had at the beginning.)

Hay muchas influencias que cambian el personaje de Moncho,
demostrando lo vulnerable que es. Una de estas influencias es el amor.
Durante la película, Moncho aprende sobre el amor y las relaciones
entre los hombres y las mujeres especialmente cuando Moncho y Roque
miran a Carmiña y O’lis. Debemos recordar el papel de otro personaje,
Aurora, pues comparte un amor jovén e inocente con Moncho. Sin
embargo, esta perspectiva de pureza cambia cuando Moncho repite las
palabras de don Gregorio- “desierta cama, turbio espejo, y corazón
vacío”. La similitud entre Moncho y don Gregorio sugiere que el niño
está empezando a sentir la tristeza del mundo adulto. Sobre todo, es
importante tener en cuenta que las lecciones de don Gregorio tenían
una gran influencia en la vida de Moncho. Cuando el maestro enseña a
los alumnos sobre la espiritrompa, los enseña sobre la libertad de
expresión (que está simbolizando por la lengua). Cuando don Gregorio
pregunta “¿Saben que las mariposas tienen lengua?”, anima a Moncho
