“We wanted to imagine what would happen if Jesus appeared again and saved us again – if we would change, if there would be hope for the world. The world right now is just that – “Hosanna” – “Crucify him”. Unfortunately, we are living in very complicated times – a person can be declared a saint and a few hours later be absolutely rejected by all of humanity.”

 

Veselka Kuncheva
