1963년 파졸리니는 뉴스릴을 사용한 영화 작업을 의뢰 받았다. 하지만 정치적 성향이 다른 극우 저널리스트 조반니 구아레스키가 영화에 참여함으로써 영화는 틀어지고 흥행에도 실패한다. 45년 후 쥬세페 베르톨루치 감독은 버려진 필름을 재구성한다. 당시 공개되지 않았던 파졸리니의 필름은 시적이고 정치적인 코멘터리로 가득할 뿐만 아니라 그의 급진적 역사인식을 적나라하게 보여준다. ‘우리의 삶은 왜 불만에 의해 지배되는가?’라는 의문으로 시작한 영화는 자유, 혁명, 계급투쟁에 대한 시각을 우주까지 확장시킨다.

Based on the diary Pope John XXIII kept between the ages of 14 and 18, his lifelong concern for tolerance, the underprivileged, and world peace is told. Rod Steiger, in the central role, acts as "intermediary" between the Pope and the audience, interpreting John's words, thoughts and actions. Steiger visits the actual places in which John lived, recreating the conditions, environment, and forces that affected his development. Through this unusual technique, we are brought close to an extraordinary man - one who's able to win the love of many people of all faiths.

Documentary footage (from the 1950s) and accompanying commentary to attempt to answer the existential question, Why are our lives characterized by discontent, anguish, and fear? The film is in two completely separate parts, and the directors of these respective sections, left-wing Pier Paolo Pasolini and conservative Giovanni Guareschi, offer the viewer contrasting analyses of and prescriptions for modern society. Part I, by Pasolini, is a denunciation of the offenses of Western culture, particularly those against colonized Africa. It is at the same time a chronicle of the liberation and independence of the former African colonies, portraying these peoples as the new protagonists of the world stage, holding up Marxism as their "salvation", and suggesting that their "innocent ferocity" will be the new religion of the era. Guareschi's part, by contrast, constitutes a defense of Western civilization and a word of hope, couched in traditional Christian terms, for man's future.
