Summary
This creative film based on the life of Christ (from the Gospel of Luke) combines two-dimensional cartoon animation with three-dimensional
claymation. It features the voices of Ralph Fiennes as Jesus, Miranda Richardson as Mary Magdalene,
Richard E. Grant as John the Baptist, and David Thewlis as Judas Iscariot. The production is faithful to the
Biblical text, as well as innovative in its approach to retelling the Gospel story.
A lovely, flute-heavy score is by Oscar winner Anne Dudley.
This film is rated G.
