In this darkly comic retelling of the Apocalypse, Jesus (Martin Donovan) arrives at JFK airport with intriguing assistant, Magdalena (PJ Harvey). While the world ponders the meaning of this second coming, Jesus battles the Devil for human souls, risks the wrath of God, and struggle with himself over whether these lives are worth saving. The Book of Life presents an unrelenting kaleidoscope of fast-moving images and hear-pounding music that perfectly captures a techno-driven, computerized, and postmodernist world.展开
