Synopsis

A film director wants to make a movie about a catholic priest who becomes crazy. In order to define his character he imagines three possible cases: the first one is a man who stole some kilos of hosts to be able to receive communion more often; the second is a northamerican priest who features a catholic TV show; the last one is someone who believes he is Jesus and even performs some miracles. Also, a handsome “don Juan” seduces women with implacable ability, although he will leave and humiliate them very soon. The priest who believes he is Jesus meets a crazy man who believes he is Napoleon. Both start walking towards Egypt and Jerusalem. A surrrealist world start to grow in the whole film…
