This touching comedy follows a poor soldier who is mistaken for Jesus Christ in a poor village. The film tells the story of a quick-witted and resourceful soldier who uses this misidentification to outsmart rich merchants, the mayor, and finally Father Ambrose, the local priest, who is known for being a glutton and womaniser.
