Overview

An all-singing, all-dancing, star-spangled musical leap around the biblical story of the Nativity, set in 1972. With a comic twist, this familiar story is brought to life through the eyes of the innkeeper. Despairing after a bad year, he contemplates suicide but his attempt is stalled by a voice from above who points out that King Herod is coming to town.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gloriously weird 1972-set rock musical retelling of the Nativity through a suicidal innkeeper's eyes, all sequins and sincerity wrapped in parody. It's the kind of film that knows how ridiculous it is and dances through it anyway.
