"In this big party, all the characters represent the excessive and the sinful; they seek pleasure without caring about morality.
The pure and innocent young woman is tempted by a gallant who offers her flowers but hides his true intentions. The pirate hoards riches and refuses to share them. The plump lady devours sweets at an endless banquet. The jesters act at the behest of the powerful Sir Money. The fashion clown follows the dictates of the internet, oblivious to the ridicule he's making. Only the harlequin maintains his composure amidst the false parodies.
Some have transformed the Fallas festival into a competitive spectacle where only the prizes matter, an attitude that breeds ostentation, vanity, and envy.
In the cemetery, the gravedigger Pedro Sánchez buries the PSOE (Spanish Socialist Workers' Party) and turns the Moncloa Palace into a brothel."

This year our fallas monument is themed 'Nothing in Excess'. It features the shrewd politicians who make up the famous government of progress.
You'll find plenty of excess and, of course, some bad habits. Because there are those who don't care about income; all they want is to shine like the moon.
We'll also talk about the Fallas festival and some current figures. We hope that, amidst the laughter, it will wake society up.
In short, enjoy the falla first, which is a true work of art made with great fallas feeling, and we hope the jury likes it.

With a doll-like face and innocent gaze, this woman leaves everyone speechless; her only real concern is that no one knows the truth.
She wears every accessory imaginable and a silk dress embroidered with gold. To a few, she appears elegant; to most, she's simply overly sentimental.

No matter how much you think you're a heartbreaker, if a woman tells you she doesn't like you, stop with the compliments and the flowers, because you'll get into trouble for being too sycophantic.

The ladder of success grows taller and people confuse it with money and admiration; success is looking in the mirror with a fortune and never losing your mind.

Among friends there's always one who's never satisfied, and eats like a pig, wanting meat, fish, cakes and eggs for next to nothing; what he has is a great 'excess of gluttony'.

For some time now, the election day has become one of the most anticipated, where it's clear who is truly enthusiastic and who is merely wishful thinking.
Being a Fallera Mayor has great significance, where the most important thing isn't showing off; culture and tradition come first, and we must eradicate excessive boasting.
Parents will do anything to make sure their daughter is chosen as Fallera Mayor. If she's not selected, you get angry, and if she is, you're stuck with a forty-year mortgage.
If we compete for everything and greatness is based on past achievements, the essence of the Fallas is lost due to excessive competitiveness.

They say it's too much affection, but the children's dreams are alive and the grandfather's eyes shine with tears and emotion.

Trump is like a kid at a carnival, puffed out with pride and an arrogant heart, he thinks the whole world revolves around him.

Half the world looks at him with fear because they say he has the key, the other half is scared shitless because he has ruined the peace.

Welcome locals and visitors, we invite you to meet our artists who, due to having too much power, have ruined the socialist party.

They ended up in the grave for being greedy and womanizers, and wait, there's still someone missing from this gang, who seemed to be dead when in reality they were just out partying.
Here lies the cemetery of the Reds, where the gravedigger is the president. The old-timers say they've gone mad and that anything goes to stay in power.

We find a soldier from a bygone era, with a stern and angry expression; he solves everything with a stroke of his golden sword—that's what it means to have excessive authority.

Being in a photo with the president hasn't won you the affection of the people.

Show your Valencian spirit, but not only in photography

You wanted a picture of rising wages, but when will you lower rents and mortgage interest rates?

The three Marias enter the scene, each in her place. They seem to be building sandcastles, as if governing were a game.

The president of the Generalitat flaunts his position with great fanfare, a position he acquired along the way thanks to VOX, who pulled a few tricks.
He has arrived at the Palau de la Generalitat, and he asks for patience regarding aid, because even he knows he was placed there thanks to his excessive complacency.

Leire works with wrenches and pipes that whisper secrets; she sees no space to break her promise, a promise that even the walls seem to hear.
Not everything can be hidden, and sometimes excessive loyalty isn't about repairing, but about telling the truth.

We found a couple at the Fallas festival, where the YouTuber films without a second thought, the buffoon does anything to get on camera, hoping to boost his bank account.
They're uncrowned buffoons, capable of anything for a photograph, without caring about the other person. They have a truly excessive ego.

We will recount this scene with respect and affection, so that it may also serve as a tribute to all the families who were harmed by this nefarious character.
Let's look at the transport minister, who thinks people are stupid. He announces that our trains are the best and forgets to mention maintenance.
Bolaños is waiting to ring the bell, because they've forged an alliance of silence; the other one keeps posting tweets on the screen. They're two miserable, overconfident fools.
There's nothing worse than believing you're on top. The fall can be very dangerous if you have an excess of superiority.
Excesses always come at a price, no matter how much time passes; when the moment of truth arrives, it's easy to end the hell.
