WHO FRAMED JESUS?
DISCOVERY US

CURRENTLY IN PRODUCTION
It is widely accepted that it was the Roman Prefect Pontius Pilate who passed the death sentence on Jesus Christ. But who plotted to have him arrested and taken before Pilate? For 2000 years the blame has been squarely placed on the shoulders of the disciple who betrayed him, Judas Iscariot, the High Priest of Jerusalem, Caiaphas and the Jewish crowd that bayed for the blood of Jesus at the trial before Pilate. All were Jews. But is this interpretation of the Gospels right? Did Judas Iscariot even exist - could he have been a fictional character created by the writers of the Gospels as some experts now believe? In 'Who Framed Jesus?', a murder mystery filmed in the style of a gritty crime thriller, religious scholars from America and the Middle East try to get nearer to the historical truth. They uncover within the Gospels a cast of suspects, among them rival preachers, militant disciples and a murderous Prince, all of whom were in Jerusalem that week, all with a motive to see Jesus dead.
