"The dual substance of Christ-
the yearning, so human so superhuman,
of man to attain God... has always been a deep
inscrutable mystery to me.
My principle anguish and source of all my joys and sorrows
from my youth onward has been the incessant,
merciless battle between
the spirit and the flesh...
and my soul is the arena
where these two armies
have clashed and met."
Nikos Kazantzakis -from the book 'The Last Temptation of Christ'
THIS FILM IS NOT BASED UPON THE GOSPEL BUT UPON THIS FICTIONAL EXPLORATION OF THE ETERNAL SPIRITUAL CONFLICT.
