Plot summary

Following the shooting of a film on the life of Jesus called This Is My Blood, Marie Palesi (Juliette Binoche), the actress who plays Mary Magdalene takes refuge in Jerusalem in search of the truth behind the story.

The director of the film, Tony Childress (Matthew Modine), who also plays Jesus, can think of only one thing: self-promotion.

In New York, television journalist Ted Younger (Forest Whitaker) presents a programme about the life of Jesus.
