- Synopsis
- Indigent village priest, Father Nazario is prepared to completely sacrifice himself in order to show the villagers the radically giving, humble, selfless way of life that he believes is the true Christian calling. But he discovers that most of the peasants are incapable of understanding him and the Church itself is appalled by this true Christian.
