Synopsis

Comments of film

This film like other Italian productions, inspired by the teaching of the catechists more than by the letter of the Évangile S, takes again the myth of Barrabas brigand, and the good Pontius Pilate, by adding even remorses of Barrabas to it, as if this one could be guilty to have been pardoned: Having to choose between Jesus and Barabbas (Anthony Quinn) assassin and rough aviné, the selected people Barabbas.

The shade of that which perished in its place will haunt forever this primary education spirit which with the wire of the lived tests will be worked little by little in doubts and remorse.

Decree one second Barabbas time is sent to the mines Soufre in Sicily or some Christian S recognize it and scorn it.

After many years of captivity a Earthquake releases it from its chains. Nothing seems to have the force to destroy such a profile. Recognized by its pars as being a indestructible element Barabbas is convinced that its release has a goal and that he is the holder of a divine mission.

In contact with the ideas of that which died for its release its spirit is built, become Gladiateur, he survives once again in the arena and avenges death for sound only friendly of which he adopted the religion.

Illuminated wrongly by a false intuition it makes an irrevocable error this will not have consequences on the total advance of a character who by the reflection builds a scale interns new as a combatant his interior demons.

All this reveals the awakening with the directions of a man introduced as limed in the plunder and the murder which in contact with a life miraculeusement saved (his) will reappear by the evolution of an constructive attitude to which one distilled novel ideas in complete return with the basic primary education container.
