The country is in turmoil with entire villages uprooted. The site of the movie is a Greek village that conducts a passion play each year. The leading citizens of the town, under the auspices of the Patriarch, choose those that will play the parts in the Passion. A stuttering shepherd is chosen to play Jesus. The town butcher (who wanted to be Jesus) is chosen as Judas. The town prostitute is chosen as Mary Magdalene. The rest of the disciples are also chosen. As the movie unfolds, the Passion Play becomes a reality. A group of villagers, uprooted by the war and impoverished, arrive at the village led by their priest. The wealthier citizens of the town want nothing with these people and manipulate a massacre. In the context of the 1920's each of the characters plays out their biblical role in actuality.。雷奥（克里斯多弗·兰伯特 Christopher Lambert 饰）曾经是一名出尽风头的拳击手，退役后来到加勒比海边的小城卡塔赫纳定居。然而告别了辉煌的职业生涯，他突然对生活茫然无措，只终日混迹酒吧颓废度日。直到有一天，他迫于生计应聘了一个护工工作，负责照看一个因车祸导致全身瘫痪的女人莫伊尔（苏菲·玛索 Sophie Marceau 饰）。曾经干练好胜的女强人莫伊尔，自从车祸无情地夺走她的行动能力后，似乎也夺走了她全部的生机，虽家赀巨万，她却再也无法感受到昨日春光，温柔海浪。仿佛被生活掏空的莫伊尔只能天天躺着消磨余下岁月，并对雷奥的照顾吹毛求疵。然而，两个灵魂在摩擦的同时似乎也在磨合，渐渐地，雷奥不仅没被莫伊尔的挑剔吓跑，反而重新找回了生活的魅力，而一天清晨，莫伊尔竟也从雷奥的鼾声中又一次触碰到了生命的意义……。
