Peter Geyer – Jesus Christus Erlöser AKA Jesus Christ Saviour (2008)
Berlin, Deutschlandhalle, November 20 th 1971. Kinski emerges into a lone spotlight on an empty stage. Shoulder length hair, plain jeans, a shirt with flower and polka dot patterns. No set, no stage effects, no costume. By reciting his own version of the New Testament’s “Jesus Christ Saviour”, he realizes a project well over 10 years in the making.
It is the time of the Hippie movement, and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical “Jesus Christ Superstar” is celebrating a sensational success in Germany as well. It is also a time of nonviolent resistance.
But Kinski’s JESUS is not some Hippie Happening. It is to be a highly emotional, highly personal recount of “mankind’s most exciting story: The Story of Jesus Christ…the freest and most modern of all men, who prefers to be massacred rather than fester alive with all the others. About a man who is the way we all would like to be. You and I”.
Klaus Kinski’s reputation in Germany is that of an eccentric provocateur. As his last theatre performance was back in 1962, most people only know him as a quirky film actor with his best days already behind him. The theatre managers fear a blasphemous program and hesitate making a commitment. Many believe that Kinski identifies himself with his protagonist and wants to present himself as the new Jesus, the spokesman of a youth movement.
