THE WAY OF THE CROSS

The Way of the Cross is a contemporary video variation on the Way of the Cross, as it is depicted in 14 stations on paintings in Christian churches. Cash’s Way of the Cross is taken by train, each platform where the train stops representing a scene from the Way of the Cross in a sober way – without making use of requisites or historical costumes. The dramatic aspect is stressed by the abandoning of the city, the painful falls and the emotional encounter between the main character, personifying Jesus, and his mother.
