Synopsis
A documentary on cellphones in a godless world. A paraphrase of the Christian myth threads
through this story of installing a transmitter which represents the church. Everything heads toward the Stations of the Cross, where any one of the actors might receive a phone call. The miracle of one`s constant availability and, at the same time, increasing solitude illustrates the varied effects of cellphones. From billboards of people kicking up their heels in the shear joy of cellphoning, to the Bohemian Forest, highway entrepreneurs, village children, and an actor playing Jesus Cellphones are here in the Czech Republic, and they have just selected their first victim.
