If you loved Mamma Roma, try Das 1. Evangelium – Matthäus
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini, and they both carry the foreign gem, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mamma Roma, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Das 1. Evangelium – Matthäus is
Bresson meets Italian neorealism. A stark, sun-blasted Jesus gathers disciples with blunt parables that unsettle the authorities. Shot in black and white with non-actors, it hums like a folk hymn.
