The Passion of Jesus – Composer’s Cut

Speaker (in Heb.): Dr. Alon Schab

Jesus Christ Superstar

Dir.: Norman Jewison
| 107 minutes

A cinematic version of the thrilling Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s energetic rock opera about Jesus’ seven last days, shot in the Judean desert. With intrigue, love, politics, idealism, and mostly brilliant rock ‘n’ roll, this is a musical for the ages. 

Speaker (in Heb.): Alon Gur Arye

Monty Python’s Life of Brian

Dir.: Terry Jones
| 93 minutes

A crazy and hilarious religious parable about a man whose life parallels Christ. On the 40th anniversary of this Monty Python's masterpiece, with its mad humor, witty dialogues, and real nonsense, we are proud to present a new and dazzling digital print.

The Role of the Jews in the Crucifixion as Seen in Cinema

Speaker (in Heb.): Dr. Sharon Rouback

The Gospel According to Saint Matthew

Dir.: Pier Paolo Pasolini
| 140 minutes

Pasolini’s version of the Gospel according to Matthew. The cinematic poet brings us back to antiquity, and tries to examine the social and political message that ancient Christianity brought to the world.

The Last Temptation of Christ

Dir.: Martin Scorsese
| 161 minutes

Scorsese’s adaptation of Kazantzakis’ extravagant novel about the profoundly human nature of Jesus Christ. Scorsese’s scandalous take is fascinating both cinematically and philosophically. The film is visually influenced by the likes of Rembrandt, Bosch, and other art masters.
