Passion Play Oberammergau 2022

The official illustrated book of the Passion Play 2022 in the Bavarian village of Oberammergau. This book documents Christian Stückl’s new production of the world-famous Passion Play with set designs, costumes and tableaux vivants by Stefan Hageneier. It is the third Passion Play production that the two Oberammergau-born artists have staged together, one that sees them forging a connection with the present day, highlighting the pressing issues of asylum and integration. The rehearsals are captured by Icelandic cinematographer Birgit Gudjonsdottir, and her moving and richly detailed photographs reveal the enormous energy and emotional force of this unique event.
