Australian actor and director Mel Gibson’s film, the monumental The Passion of the Christ was shown in cinemas worldwide during Lent in 2004. Although it divided viewers, there seemed to be agreement that it was the most important passion film ever made. The Erkel, which also functioned as a cinema for an extended time, will resume its old role as the world's largest film theatre on Good Friday.
