Jesus Christ Kinski

In November 1971, Klaus Kinski performs a one-man show about Jesus Christ in Berlin. The performance ends in chaos and violence, marking his last stage appearance. Fifty years later, a hypochondriac writer, trapped by snowstorms, becomes obsessed with footage of Kinski's manic performance. His analysis leads him into the darker corners of modern culture, exploring the compulsive drive of artists to the brink of madness in their quest for perfection.
