Judas & Jesus

Judas & Jesus

The naked truth about a Bible classic.

Directed by Claudia Romero, Olaf Encke

200815 min6.6 / 10

A provocative, irreverent animated satire that inverts biblical morality through crude humor and anthropomorphic absurdity to challenge religious orthodoxy.

Judas is the hero and Jesus is the villain in this lewd retelling of the classic Bible story. Depicted through anthropomorphic animals, we see a unique alternative perspective. Judas (an unscrupulous black goat) has been at odds with Jesus (a self-righteous white sheep) ever since childhood. However, when an opportunity arises to sell Jesus out for the 30 Euros he needs to get into Maria Magdalena's sex show, things finally seem to start going Judas' way. But what will Jesus' adoring fans have to say about it?
