Mimma Pomilia

A small town in Italy is about to celebrate their patron saint. The city is full of people with different problems. A Communist in existentialist crisis that also must take care of his mentally ill wife. A woman who is tired of her husband's inability to show emotions and therefore more and more often slips into the world of dreams. A perverse butcher engaged in sex with the meat he sells when he's not peeping on young girls. A girl who became pregnant after having sex with her father. In this town a mysterious stranger show up and who turns on several of the inhabitants lives.

Partindo da Imaculada Conceição, a vida de Cristo é reconstituída segundo o Evangelho de São Mateus. Quando Jesus viaja pela Palestina com os seus discípulos para espalhar a palavra de Deus, os romanos conspiram para que ele seja silenciado, resultando na sua prisão, crucificação, e ressurreição.
