    After all, it is us who create the great human comedy which I term "The Divine Comedy": either the eagerness for life, sex as an idol, power as the ultimate ambition and death as a limitation for everything, or the acceptance of suffering and of resurrection as a real glory? This is the dilemma! After all, an historical film or, if you prefer, an allegory about Western civilization.
