Benedetta begins to have recurring visions of jesus Far from a standard biopic, verhoeven’s take on the story transforms benedetta’s life into a delirious, salaciously satirical melodrama roiling with eros and violence. After a particularly fraught vision, where a man whom she mistakes for jesus saves her from being gang raped, benedetta falls into a deep illness.
