The innovation is Photon--a process for setting type photographically, rather than through the use of any hot metal casting system...

In The Greek Passion, the peasant Manolios reenacted the Crucifixion as it might have happened in a 1920 Anatolian village. Captain Michales of Freedom or Death is a citizen soldier-patriot burning to set late 19th century Crete free from Turkish rule. These three heroes have nothing in common but the Kazantzakis touch-a gift for catching a man in mid-passion and life at full flood...
