Antonio Robles, or Toño to his friends, has been reenacting the passion and death of Jesus Christ for approximately 20 years. He and his cast are committed to their sacred mission: to represent the biblical passages of Jesus as realistically as possible. As every year, Toño embraces his role with great passion and undergoes grueling physical trials. These include being whipped, dragged by a horse, carrying a heavy cross, and having steel nails driven into the middle of his fingers during the crucifixion. These are the arduous tests the actor endures. The Christ of Churubamba, located in the Huánuco region of Peru, is considered one of the most extreme and realistic reenactments in Latin America. At the end of the final act (the crucifixion), Antonio collapses, a result of the immense physical exertion required to portray the penitential scenes of Jesus Christ. A team of paramedics accompanies him on his journey. At the end of the day, he was rushed to the medical post in the village of Churubamba. His recovery was slow, but his faith remained unwavering until the following year. Antonio Robles is an art teacher at a secondary school in Huánuco, a devoted father, and always provides social assistance to those most in need in his town.
