Der Mann, der Gott verklagte (2001)
Australische Komödie, in der der Fischer Steve Myers Gott und die Kirche verklagt, weil sich seine Versicherung weigert, einen Schaden an seinem Boot zu bezahlen, der durch einen Blitz entstand. New South Wales, Australien: Als die Unterkunft des Fischers Steve vom Blitz getroffen und zerstört wird, fordert er von seiner Versicherung Schadensersatz. Doch diese weigert sich mit dem Verweis auf einen Versicherungs-Passus, der "höhere Gewalt" ausschließt. Der ehemalige Anwalt will dies nicht hinnehmen und strengt vor Gericht einen Prozess gegen Gott und die Vertreter der Weltreligionen an. Ein gigantischer Medienrummel beginnt.
