Product Description
**NOMINATED FOR BEST INTERNATIONAL FEATURE FILM AT THE 2020 ACADEMY AWARDS**
**CERTIFIED FRESH ON ROTTEN TOMATOES**
After spending years in a Warsaw prison for a violent crime, 20-year-old Daniel is released and sent to a remote village to work as a manual laborer. The job is designed to keep the ex-con busy, but Daniel has a higher calling. Over the course of his incarceration he has found Christ, and aspires to join the clergy - but his criminal record means no seminary will accept him. When Daniel arrives in town, one quick lie allows him to be mistaken for the town's new priest, and he sets about leading his newfound flock. Though he has no training, his passion and charisma inspire the community. At the same time, his unconventional sermons and unpriestly behavior raise suspicions among some of the townsfolk - even more so as he edges towards a dark secret that the community hasn't revealed in the confessional booth.
Bonus features include Making-of featurette and short film, Nice To See You, directed by Jan Komasa.

Jan Komasa's Corpus Christi is a stunning Polish feature which has made waves at Venice and deserves further global re. Poland may have quite the strong O contender with this film which shares the elegance, complexity and layered narrative approach as O favorites The Hunt (Denmark) and Loveless (Russia). A story that packs an emotional punch while offering fresh themes and interesting perspectives on religion and faith, this is a striking feature that is impressive in every sense of the word and one of the year's best directed films foreign or otherwise. - Mina Takla, AwardsWatch
Critic's Pick. Compelling...powerful.... - Peter Debruge, Variety
Original and absorbing. What is true faith and what's fakery is a question that runs through Polish director Jan Komasa's slow-burn drama Corpus Christi, its dark intensity channeled in a dynamically physical, wild-eyed performance from talented young lead Bartosz Bielenia. - David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
Often moving but also disquieting and even intermittently funny, this drama unfurls a spiritual parable that is uniquely Polish but accessible to all. Piotr Sobociski's blue-toned cinematography enhances the rapturous air and enhances a smartly written, unsettling work of realism. --Leslie Felperin, The Guardian
[A]n engrossing exploration of faith, second chances and the possibility of atonement. - Allan Hunter, Screen Daily
In his superb new movie, Jan Komasa investigates the social dynamics of a small community that gets a new priest who hides his true identity. - Ola Salwa, Cineuropa
It's flawless storytelling, effortlessly played and with a rousing, if bloody, conclusion. - Kevin Maher, The Times (UK)
An intelligent and provocative film which alternately charms and unsettles, Corpus Christi is Poland's entry for the 2020 Best Foreign Language O. It's a small torn drama with much bigger connotations and it thoroughly deserves its place on the world stage. --Jennie Kermode, Eye for Film
