Au nom du Christ

4.2 /10 ComédieDrame

Dans le petit village d'Afrique de l'Ouest où se déroule cette fable ironique, un pauvre porcher, qui ne cesse d'être méprisé par les hommes de son village, faillit se noyer dans le fleuve un jour où il a trop bu. Sorti de l'eau, il a alors la vision d'un « enfant de Dieu », qui l'aurait choisi entre tous pour sauver son peuple. Désormais, il se présente aux siens comme Magloire Ier, le « cousin du Christ ». Un peu fou, un peu voleur, charlatan pour les uns, prodige pour les autres, il règne en maître absolu et pousse ses convictions à l’extrême, allant jusqu’à se faire crucifier comme le Christ. Ce film évoque avec humour la prolifération des sectes et les aberrations qu’elles peuvent véhiculer dans une Afrique ballottée entre tradition, modernité et pouvoir.
