Summary "...a non-violent parable in which Zouzou incarnates both Mary and Mary Magdalene while Pierre Cleḿenti incarnates a discouraged Christ who throws down his arms in the face of world cruelty. In spite of its allegorical nature, the film contains a denunciation of the police repression of 1968, which was generally well understood by viewers at the time."--Philippe Garrel, container
