A short movie situated in Corsano by Vincenzo De Masi.
'Il Vestito del Prete' tells the story of Don Vincenzo, a priest of a little town in Salento (South of Italy) after the Second World War. He lives his spirituality in a conflictive way, he believes in God, the word of Christ and what He can teach us but he doesn't believe in the institution of the church. Every Sunday Don Vincenzo tries to convince his parochials by preaching his convictions. This seems to be very difficult because in those hard times people tend to seek consolation in church.
Don Vincenzo is in permanent state of anxiousness and finds himself surrounded by people who doesn't trust him, by his superiors who don't like his attitude and by the mayor who considers him a real menace and tries to get him out of the village as soon as possible.
One day he decides to flie away, and soon he is tempted by the devil and by other visions. In the end, exhausted, slain by his enemies he collapses and throws of his suit. He is naked, his soul and his mind are empty. Will he be able to start all over again?
