What it’s about. In kraftvollen Bildern transportiert der zweite Film des in Südafrika lebenden britischen Theater- und Opernregisseurs Mark Dornford-May das Leben Jesu in ein von Bürgerkrieg, Militärdiktatur und Revolte zerfressenes Land. Wie sein Debütfilm “U-Carmen e-Khayelitsha”, der die Oper “Carmen” in einem südafrikanischen Township ansiedelte, singen und sprechen die Protagonisten auch hier Isi Xhosa, eine der elf traditionellen Landessprachen. Und wie sein mitreißendes Kinodebüt inszenierte Dornford-May seine kühne Neu-Interpretation des Neuen Testaments ebenfalls in Khayelitsha.
