Short description
Along a rocky, barren coastline, Jesus begins teaching, primarily using parables. He attracts disciples; he's stern, brusque, and demanding. His parables often take on the powers that be, so he and his teachings come to the attention of the Pharisees, the chief priests, and elders. They conspire to have him arrested, beaten, tried, and crucified, just as he prophesied to his followers.
What's left behind the scenes
- The apostle Philip was played by 21-year-old philosopher Giorgio Agamben. Writers Juan Rodolfo Wilcock and Natalia Ginzburg played Caiaphas and Mary of Bethany, respectively.
- The role of Mary was played by the director's mother – Susanna Pasolini, in the scenes of Jesus's execution.
- At the time, an unknown Bertolucci assisted Pasolini on the film's set.
- Alexander Tvardovsky, after watching the film, rushed to embrace the director.
- Ninetto Davoli made his film debut in a silent role (playing a shepherd), but was not mentioned in the credits.
