Movies and TvShows featuring "church-poor-box" theme.

A penniless man in 1960s France, driven by hunger and poverty, steals money and seeks divine signs to avoid work. With the help of a pocket watch, a motorcycle, and a toffee, he finds himself caught up in a series of comical and chaotic events, including a burglary and a narrow escape from the police. As he navigates through a world of bourgeois values and religious norms, he questions the importance of money and the true meaning of happiness.

In Pasquale Pozzessere's debut, a woman just out of prison falls in love with a man who saw steaing form a collection box in a church. Some critics saw a dry style next to Pasolini's as the director shows the two desperate individuals effort to build a sort of precarious family. In the end you could almost feel there's still a slender thread of hope for them to hang on
