Film: WHITE POP JESUS (1980) 2023

DIAMETRALE Disco WarmUp with WHITE POP JESUS (1980)
How wonderful: Jesus descends into the Rome of the 80s to fight against the badness of the world with bible quotes & disco.
"All those for whom Norman Jewison's JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR (1973) wasn't groovy enough will get their money's worth here: this late cross(ing) of musicarello and musical marries the New Testament not only with the disco genre, but also with slapstick elements and a Mafia subplot." (Sven Safarow, Terza Visione)
Praise the Lord that this film print could be found in a small cineteca after a long search. Before this gem travels south again, it makes a stop in Innsbruck. A unique opportunity!
