Saint Young Men 2nd Century

In this imaginative narrative, Jesus Christ and Gautama Buddha take a vacation on earth, living together in an apartment while trying to blend in with Japanese society. Their comedic adventures include everything from shopping for rice cookers to participating in cosplay in Akihabara. The film cleverly juxtaposes the lives of these two iconic figures against the backdrop of contemporary life in Japan.

Saint Young Men 2nd Century is part of the Saint Young Men Collection, which is based on a popular slice-of-life manga serialised in Japan since 2006. The film delivers a series of humorous vignettes that highlight the mundane aspects of life through the eyes of these divine roommates. With a runtime of 60 minutes, it's a compact exploration of faith, friendship, and fun in a modern setting.
