Forget the mythology—this is the story of Jesus as an apocalyptic preacher in Roman-occupied Judea, grounded in the historical scholarship that Hollywood has long ignored.

SYNOPSIS:

Based on the critical scholarship of New Testament historians, this script portrays Jesus not as the sanitized figure of modern religious media, but as a revolutionary voice confronting empire, class, and injustice in a world on the brink. With narrative roots in the Gospels and Paul’s letters—and with support from academic experts—this script offers the first serious cinematic treatment of the historical Jesus, finally giving modern audiences the story biblical scholars have been telling for a century.
