The Passion Play has been a success for more than 40 years at a Montreal church, but the old-fashioned staging has made modern audiences restless. When the priest in charge hires a young troupe of actors to stage a revised and more inventive version, things don\u2019t go exactly as planned.<\/p>\n

Combining religion and some unconventional theories about Jesus, the troupe\u2019s work begins to ruffle some feathers in the Catholic church, even as the life of main actor Daniel (Bluteau) starts to mirror the Messiah\u2019s journey in unexpected and poignant ways.<\/p>\n

Told with sharp humour and heart, the film received critical acclaim and won numerous awards, including the Genie for Best Picture and the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nJ\u00e9sus de Montr\u00e9al (Jesus of Montreal) -
