The Nazi propaganda film is the second film that Molina tells Valentin, therefore the parallels that can be drawn between Valentin and Molina’s story and the Nazi propaganda film is quite significant in understanding character development, especially for Molina since he is recounting the film.
Firstly, it is important that we consider the origins of the Nazi propaganda film. We know that in the real world, it is not a real film. However, we do not know whether in Puig’s creation, it was meant to be a real film that Molina recounts to Valentin, or if Molina himself is making up the story. This is an interesting point, because if Molina is making up the film, then all of the foreshadowing, character development and parallels that exist within
