Overview

Jesus, a humble Judean carpenter beginning to see that he is the son of God, is drawn into revolutionary action against the Roman occupiers by Judas—despite his protestations that love, not violence, is the path to salvation.

I think this is a deeply misunderstood film by Christians. I absolutely adore this film.
