Holy Meat

2026 · 117 min

A wry, offbeat comedy that quietly skewers small-town faith and big-city theatre egos while keeping a stubborn warmth under the absurdity.

Overview: Father Iversen has a mission: to save his parish. He already has an idea. With a spectacular performance of the Passion story, he wants to convince the theater-loving archbishop to keep the parish. But director Roberto, who has been canceled by the Berlin theater scene, and Mia, the butcher who has returned involuntarily, thwart his plans.
How it feels: Satirical, absurd, warm and cynical. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Faith, art, class, identity
Content: Mild violence, gore, sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
