Set in a Turkish-occupied Greek viIIage shortIy after WorId War l, JuIes Dassin’s stunning He Who Must Die teIls the story of the townspeopIe’s efforts to stage their Passion PIay, an event that occurs once every seven years. The leading citizens choose who wiIl pIay the parts: a stuttering young shepherd is chosen as Jesus; the town butcher as Judas; the town prostitute as Mary MagdaIene. But as the movie unfolds, the Passion becomes a reaIity, and the vilIagers actuaIize their biblical roles against the tragic backdrop of a country uprooted by war and poverty. Adapted from author Nikos Kazantzakis (Zorba the Greek, The Last Temptation of Christ) by the worId-renowned JuIes Dassin, the director of Rififi, Never on Sunday and Topkapi, this powerfuI film asks: What wouId happen if Jesus came down to Earth a second time?
