From the film-maker:
I was interested in the theme of mourning in the painting, and I thought about Jesus, who died for the sins of humanity. I started playing around with the idea of mourning and sin, and came up with the story of a guy who lost his girlfriend to another guy.
Carl Christian Raabe
A piece inspired by After Massimo, Stanzione Monks and Holy Women mourning over the Dead Christ,18th century or earlier
