A group of actors decide to put on a passion play.

Well, they are hired by the Diocese to put on the annual event.

They decide to rewrite the hackie script they have been given.

Miracles ensue.

Not really, no hand of God comes along.

But a lot of happening happens.

I liked this movie a lot.

Robert LePage. Pushing the boundaries. But in a totally coherent way.

Lothaire Bluteau is the actor chosen to do the Jesus part. He takes it very seriously.

A lot of this film is a muddle. It is too long. But is a lot of fun getting to the end.

A modern version of the same story all the way through resurrection. Pretty clever actually.

Once is enough for this film but that is quite a lot. I was really into it. 3 out of Netflix5.
