Plot
A film-within-a-film shot on a Roman set of the Passion.
Sinekatalog’s take
Pier Paolo Pasolini's short film follows a hungry bit-player on a film set of the Passion, in a sharp, blasphemy-trial-inspiring satire. With Orson Welles as a director, it is a lyrical, funny and bitter essay on faith, class and cinema.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
