Storyline: Jesus 1999 Jesus dreams of a medieval battle in the name of Jesus Christ and of a dying world war soldier who, in desperation, calls out the name Jesus Jesus awakes, distraught What is the meaning of this nightmare Why are these strangers using his name Jesus is a simple carpenter, like his father Joseph Both are presently looking for work, but theyve been wandering for days from town to town without finding any Times are difficult in Galilee Roman taxes are stifling the country The hated Jewish tax collectors, viewed by the people as traitors, rob people of their last means of subsistence Revolts and bands of revolutionary thieves are spreading uncertainty throughout the land Herod Antipas, the Jewish king, is merely a weak shadow of his feared father Herod the Great The real power lies in the hands of Caiphas, the high priest To strengthen his position, he plays the Jewish interests against the Roman interests with religious fervor His most dangerous opponent is the new Roman procurator, Pontius Pilate This hard, people despising military man has an ideal comrade in arms in the cynical author and spy Livius The two callously attempt to keep rebellious Judea under Roman control Countless crosses with executed rebels line the streets The Romans, however, observe the growing power of itinerant preachers and prophets with suspicion The most influential of these prophets is John the Baptist He fearlessly condemns Roman lust for power, the decay of religious customs and the reprehensible immorality in the house of Herod After Josephs death, Jesus feels abandoned and lonely He believes that he is not yet strong enough to take up his calling Then his mother Mary tells him how an angel once revealed to her that she would bear a son, and she tells how determinedly Joseph declared his support for this miraculous child, despite the fact that it was not his own Further, Mary describes the foreign kings who paid homage to the newborn child Jesus now realizes that it is time for him to follow his calling He takes his leave from his previous life and from Mary of Bethany, the woman who loves him From now on, his life is to be completely devoted to his great mission Jesus visits John the Baptist In their childhood days, Joseph raised these two as brothers They remember their first shared visit to the temple, as well as the fact that, back then, it was Jesus who, as a 12 year old boy, went to the temple without his parents knowledge, in order to teach in his fathers house Now that Jesus is ready to take up his calling, John agrees to baptize him At the baptism, a glowing dove appears and a voice calls Jesus by name After the baptism, Jesus retreats to the desert, alone, to meditate There, Satan appears to him in the form of a beautiful, beguiling woman and a man in contemporary street clothes Satan shows Jesus all the unhappiness that his teachings will one day bring to humanity and offers him in exchange real, unlimited power over the Earth Jesus resists the temptation and, now steadfast, returns home The first disciples are already slowly beginning to gather around Jesus They still have doubts, however, as to whether their master is really the heralded Messiah Only Mary trusts in her son When the wine runs out at her nephew Benjamins wedding, she is able to talk Jesus into giving everyone a visible sign of his divine heritage Jesus asks to have the amphora filled with water and transforms it into wine This miracle allays his disciples doubts Through miracles, Jesus succeeds in allaying the doubts of Simon the Fisher and even those of Thomas, the skeptic They, too, follow him At the same time, however, Jesus continually perplexes his followers with his incomprehensible behavior He shuns the Jewish freedom movement lead by the wild Zealot leader Barnabas, for example, and instead accepts the invitation of Matthew the tax collector Matthew, too, becomes a follower of Jesus, despite the other disciples mistrust When a recently discovered adulteress is to be stoned by an angry mob, Caiphas sees his chance expose to Jesus He invites the crowd to demand a verdict from Jesus Jesus, however saves the desperate young woman by declaring that only he who is without sin himself may cast the first stone at her Ashamed, the mob disperses Deeply moved by this scene, the former prostitute Mary Magdalene joins the disciples When Jesus wants to go with his students to the temple to pray, he finds the temple court full of traders and money changers Suddenly overcome with rage, Jesus hurls their stands to the ground and, wielding a whip, drives the profiteers out of the temple When neither the Jews nor the Romans show signs of resistance, it becomes clear that Jesus will play an important role in Judeas future religious and political development John the Baptist, in the meantime, has been executed at the wish of Queen Herodias, the wife of Herod Antipas Jesus mourns his loss greatly, but he can hardly give in to his pain, as more and more people are coming to him to hear his teachings, even though many of these still seem strange and incomprehensible For example, Jesus preaches that God favors the meek, the poor and the faint Above all, however, he doesnt put strict observance of the laws first, but rather love of ones fellow man Jesus doesnt even shun non Jews, to his disciples dismay All attempts by the ambitious disciple Judas to give Jesus teachings a political twist fail Judas is forever trying in vain to gain Jesus support for the Zealots freedom fight Finally, when Jesus brings Lazarus, who is dead and has already been lying in his grave for several days, back to life in front of several onlookers, his popularity knows no bounds Sitting on a donkey, Jesus rides into Jerusalem and is received like a king by an enormous crowd Caiphas sees a real threat to his religious authority He goes to Pilate, who, in fact, officially wants to have nothing to do with Jewish religious matters, but secretly has already planned Jesus death, together with scheming Livius He was just waiting for Caiphas to take the initiative This way, Pilate can pretend that he is merely carrying out the will of the Jewish authorities and does not have to take any personal responsibility for Jesus death Jesus himself knows quite well that his death is inevitable At a last shared supper, he bids his disciples farewell He tells Judas, however, that he should listen to his conscience for a change Judas has long been contemplating delivering Jesus to the authorities in order to provoke a rebellion and thus to force Jesus to take political action He leaves the meal to betray Jesus location to Caiphas henchmen Jesus spends his last hours of freedom with select disciples in a garden near Jerusalem Again Satan appears to him and tries to talk Jesus into avoiding his death He tries to convince Jesus that, not only will his death be meaningless, but quite the contrary it will bring that much more suffering and atrocity into the world He shows him religious wars and witches being burned But Jesus believes in the love in people and surrenders to Judas, who is approaching with Caiphas henchmen While Jesus is being sent back and forth between Caiphas, Pilate and Herod in a cruel farce, being brutally whipped all the while, his disciples hide in fear Even courageous Simon, who Jesus once called Peter, the rock, denies knowing his master Jesus is sentenced to death Undergoing dreadful torture, he is crucified on a hill near the city When he dies, the sky becomes dark and an earthquake rocks the land The disciples take him down from the cross and bury him in a cave Three days later, however, they find the cave empty Jesus, alive, appears to them and commands them to proclaim everywhere that love has conquered death Even doubtful Thomas has to believe the miracle when he is allowed to touch the crucifix wounds on Jesus hands
