在《蒙特娄的耶稣》（Jesus of Montreal, 1989）中，丹尼·阿岗（Denys Arcand）借着拟讽耶稣受难的故事批判大众传播阻断语言沟通的罪行。在这部电影中，一个年轻而无名的演员克伦应教堂执事之邀，和另外四个人组成了临时剧团，要以现代化的方式演出这个教堂每年夏天上演的《受难剧》。原本的剧本十分简单，只有几行以宣叙的方式朗诵的经文：「耶稣被宣判死刑，正直的人会死亡，为了我们的罪…我们的杀、窃盗、奸淫，所有的罪都加在祂身上，沉重的木块，沉重的十字架。」这些都是忠实地取自于圣经的经文。但是，克伦根据有关耶稣的各种古代文本的考据，以及各地有关耶稣的民间传说，改写这出受难剧，例如耶稣是一名士兵潘提拉的私生子，后来因为辗转传，才成为「木匠的儿子」；耶稣的画像在拜占庭时代以前，并没有胡子，后来加上的胡，系为了增加「力量」的缘故；耶稣在埃及时...。在佐治亚州一个名叫烟草路的贫穷乡村，居住着贫困的莱斯特一家。家中的吉特（查利· 格雷普韦恩 Charley Grapewin 饰）是个懒惰的人，为了得到一些东西经常不择手段。他的妻子艾达（伊丽莎白·帕特森 Elizabeth Patterson 饰）常常劝他勤劳耕种，但没有取得任何效果。他们还有一个未婚的儿子杜德（威廉·崔西 William Tracy 饰）和女儿埃莉梅（吉恩·蒂尔尼 Gene Tierney 饰）留在家中。 有一天，吉特发现女婿拉乌（沃德·邦德 Ward Bond 饰）得到了一大袋芜菁。他毫不犹豫地带领家人偷走了拉乌的芜菁。然后，他听说长久未见的提姆大人即将回到烟草路，他对此感到非常高兴，希望能向提姆借钱购买农耕用品。然而，艾达警告他，偷窃将受到上帝的惩罚，今年的收成注定不会好。吉特内疚不安，决定找传道士贝茜姐妹为他念祷告，以洗清罪...。JERUSALEM takes audiences on an inspiring and eye-opening tour of one of the worlds oldest and most enigmatic cities. Destroyed and rebuilt countless times over 5000 years, Jerusalems enduring appeal remains a mystery. What made it so important to so many different cultures? How did it become the center of the world for three major religions? Why does it still matter to us? JERUSALEM attempts to answer these questions by following three young Jerusalemites and their families Jewish, Christian and Muslim. Through their eyes, audiences will learn what it means to call Jerusalem home, and experience celebrations and events that mark the high points of a year in the life of the city. JERUSALEM will also follow archaeologists, Dr. Jodi Magness and Dr. Nazmi al-Jubeh, as they explore some of the most extraordinary historical sites in the region in order to better understand this crossroads of civilization. JERUSALEM seeks to build trust and respect between Jews, Christians and Muslims by showcasing their common heritage and inspiring them, and the public, to better understand each other. Audiences will gain a completely unique perspective of a part of the world that captivates the imagination of billions of people. JERUSALEM's producers include multiple Oscar winner, Jake Eberts (Gandhi, Dances With Wolves, The Killing Fields), and Taran Davies (Journey to Mecca), and George Duffield (The End of the Line). Daniel Ferguson (Lost Worlds, Wired to Win: Surviving the Tour de France) is writer, director and producer. Dominic Cunningham Reid (Journey to Mecca) is executive producer.。
