Els fills : Drama by J. Puig I.
Els fills by J. Puig I.. is a stage drama written in the early 20th century. It is a moral family play about rebellious youth, maternal love, repentance, and the tragic cost of disobedience. Magdalena, a widowed mother, struggles to rein in her sons, Alfred and Manel, while her neighbor Quica indulges her own son, Tomàs. Spurred by Tomàs, the boys defy their mother, abandon home, and slip into petty crime—even robbing
their own house—despite the warnings of the village priest, Mossèn Geroni. In the mountains by a hermitage, guards seize Tomàs, and the brothers, shaken and remorseful, seek the priest’s help and witness their mother praying for them. Geroni arranges their return; Magdalena forgives them tenderly, and they confess their misdeeds and pledge reform. In the moment of reconciliation, weakened by grief, Magdalena dies in their arms after charging them to be good and to accept the priest’s guidance, leaving the repentant sons mourning and resolved to honor her memory.
