According to the Jewish historian Josephus there were actually quite a few guys who people thought might be the messiah walking around Judea roughly around about the same time as Jesus. Simon the Magician (20–60 CE), or Simon bar Kokhba (90–135 CE). None of them succeeded. They all failed. They were all killed, and can you really be the messiah if you don’t achieve anything which is why the vast majority of Jews in the middle of the first Century don’t follow Jesus. Because a messiah was not supposed to die on a cross executed by the Romans.
Over the last century, New Testament scholars have examined the New Testament word by word to tease apart the true history from accepted tradition. This light-heated but factual film is telling the “true” story of early Christianity with the help of twelve biblical scholars, Renaissance masterpieces and humorous animation. It’s neither a film about faith nor a film attacking or making fun of Christianity. It’s an honest attempt to piece together a very complex and fascinating story that everyone will enjoy.
