Plot
Father Iversen has a mission: to save his parish. He already has an idea. With a spectacular performance of the Passion story, he wants to convince the theater-loving archbishop to keep the parish. But director Roberto, who has been canceled by the Berlin theater scene, and Mia, the butcher who has returned involuntarily, thwart his plans.
