Ich, Judas

This film presents a unique take on the story of Judas, the disciple known for his betrayal of Jesus. Set in Berlin Cathedral, Ben Becker's performance invites audiences to reflect on the motivations and implications of Judas's actions. The narrative suggests that the common interpretation of Judas as a clear-cut traitor may be flawed, raising questions about the nature of truth and betrayal.

Accompanied by the organ music of Andreas Sieling, the film creates a poignant atmosphere that enhances its dramatic themes. Walter Jens's text forms the basis of this thought-provoking exploration, aiming to shift perceptions of Judas from villain to misunderstood figure. This perspective may resonate with viewers interested in religious narratives and moral complexities.
