L'Imitation du Cinéma plot

A young man receives the book 'The Imitation of Jesus Christ' from a priest. He reads it with such fervor that he has only one wish: to be crucified. Since he cannot find a cross large enough for him in any shop, he orders one from a carpenter. Meanwhile, he wanders through the red-light district, where he meets a prostitute who also turns out to be a cross-seller. That night he has an adventure with her. The next day he collects the cross from the carpenter and begins his own Way of the Cross.
