In a Church in Cape Town (South Africa), a young English priest was guiding a simple but original "Way of the Cross." the Passion narrated by the eyewitnesses. At the altar, alternatively came fourteen readers, who identified themselves with the persons who lived the drama of that Friday, which history will call 'Holy' People knelt in front of the traditional pictures, asking for the Lord's forgiveness, then listened to the readings about Pilate, Simon of Cyrene, Longinus, Dismas, Mary Magdalene...An anonymous author (probably from Croatia) wrote this manuscript which then, the theologian Valentino Salvoldi revised and put into the present format, adding only the part of the choir a dramatic dialogue with the different eyewitnesses, leading to end each station with a prayer. It is indeed a new and interesting way of re-living the Passion, to become aware that each one of us could also be Pilate, Simon of Cyrene, the good and the unrepentant thief, for all of us are saints and sinners at the same time, and all in need of God's mercy
