Jesus of Montreal

In the bustling city of Montreal, a passionate group of actors embarks upon a daring artistic journey: performing an interpretive Passion Play that intertwines religious history with contemporary themes. As these talented performers dive deep into their characters and the complex emotions surrounding Jesus' final days, they begin to find striking similarities between their roles on stage and their own lives off-stage. The production garners both praise and controversy, eventually drawing the attention of the local Catholic church which fiercely opposes the unconventional portrayal of a sacred story. This thought-provoking narrative explores themes of artistry, devotion, and personal transformation as it delves into the blurred lines between fiction and reality, challenging the actors and the audience alike to question their own beliefs and convictions.
