synopsis
With the use of a casual cinematic language, French director Andy Guérif has breathed life into a grandiose polyptych by painter Duccio di Buoninsegna from Siena. Twenty-six simultaneously unfolding scenes from the Passion of Christ show the 14th century majestic work of art frame by frame from a previously unseen perspective.
