This looks damn good.

I’m a longtime fan of Werner Herzog, and therefore of Klaus Kinski, as the two are inseparable in many ways. Jesus Christus Erlöser will make a nice companion to the excellent Mein liebster Feind: Klaus Kinski (My Best Fiend: Klaus Kinski).

From the official movie site:

Berlin, Deutschlandhalle, November 20th, 1971. Kinski emerges into a lone spotlight on an empty stage. Shoulder length hair, plain jeans, a shirt with flower and polka dot patterns. No set, no stage effects, no costume. By reciting his own version of the New Testament’s “Jesus Christ Saviour,” he realizes a project well over 10 years in the making.
