Plot.
Voltaire, a 16th century author was furious that learned members of a "civilized" society could claim that the apparent senseless violence and mayhem wrought by disasters, war, disease, man's cruelty, etc. was actually only a part of some 'greater good'. After all, God (being perfect) could not 'logically' have created anything but the 'best of all possible' universes.

Details.
Wiki.
Mondo candido is a 1975 Italian black comedy film by Mondo directors Gualtiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi. It is a liberal adaptation of Voltaire's 1759 novel Candide.
An orphan boy is raised by a baron in Westphalia. A local philosopher teaches him a purely optimistic view of the world. The baron exiles the boy when he realizes that his ward is in love with the baron's daughter. The baron and his wife are killed shortly after by outlaw bikers. The boy searches the world for his love interest, and he has first-hand experiences with the Holy Inquisition, with the Troubles in Northern Ireland, and with the Arab–Israeli conflict in Israel.
