视频简介
Greece, in the 1920's, is occupied by the Turks. The country is in turmoil with entire villages uprooted. The site of the movie is a Greek village that conducts a passion play each year. The leading citizens of the town, under the auspices of the Patriarch, choose those that will play the parts in the Passion. A stuttering shepherd is chosen to play Jesus. The town butcher (who wanted to be Jesus) is chosen as Judas. The town prostitute is chosen as Mary Magdalene. The rest of the disciples are also chosen. As the movie unfolds, the Passion Play becomes a reality. A group of villagers, uprooted by the war and impoverished, arrive at the village led by their priest. The wealthier citizens of the town want nothing with these people and manipulate a massacre. In the context of the 1920's each of the characters plays out their biblical role in actuality.。从在舞台上被抱摔到世界各地都能听到的耳光，这位喜剧演员在这部随心所欲、未经过滤的喜剧特辑中得以尽情释放。。新年到来之际，伊莲（Eva Birthistle 饰）和丈夫约拿（Stephen Campbell Moore 饰）带着三个孩子凯茜（Hannah Tointon 饰）、米兰达（Eva Sayer 饰）和波利（William Howes 饰）驱车前往乡下，与妹妹克洛（Rachel Shelley 饰）一家四口共度新年，只有伊莲的大女儿凯茜因为不能参加好友的聚会而有些闷闷不乐。久未见面的孩子们快乐玩耍，大人们愉快畅谈，但欢乐的气氛慢慢被不安的因素所侵染。先是波利变得沉默孤僻，接着米兰达也显得惴惴不安，其他的孩子也相继出现异样。大人们完全没有注意到孩子们的变化，只采取粗暴和敷衍的手段解决。次日聚餐之时，孩子们突然陷入混乱与惶恐。纯真的天使们由此化为令大人战栗不安的魔鬼…… 本片荣获2009年葡萄牙国际奇幻电影节特别提及。。
