Translated into more languages than any film in history (more than 800), The Jesus Film has been seen by more than 4.7 billion people in 236 nations. The vivid screenplay, actually shot in the Holy Land, comes from the Gospel of Luke; virtually every word spoken by Jesus is drawn directly from the biblical text. More than five years of research went into the production design, costuming and handcrafted artifacts in an effort to provide historical authenticity.
Raising questions... How could this destitute man from a despised town in Galilee, who never wrote a book, led an army, or owned anything, become the best-known and most-loved figure in history? Is Jesus who he said he was? Twenty centuries after he first appeared, why are people still so attracted to his life and teachings? Could he be what so many believe him to be?
Finding answers... The Jesus Film has helped millions of people find the answers to these questions. This moving account of the life of Jesus gives an amazingly authentic portrayal of one of the most influential and captivating figures in all of human history, Jesus of Nazareth.
Watch The Jesus Film and find life-changing answers.

Most accurate account of the life and death of Jesus Mar 24, 2007
Though not the most current film, it's the closest to the biblical account of what transpired.
Despite it's age, still a classic tool Jan 23, 2007
Of course, the story of Christ is as ageless as God Himself. This film was so well put together and released back in 1979, that it needs no update. The movie was filmed mostly on-location for authenticity.
This DVD fits appropriately in any Christian's collection, and serves well in ministry projects as well.
Awesome Movie, Simply the BEST Jun 21, 2006
Awesome movie about our LORD JESUS CHRIST.
I also recommend, The Gospel of John, this too is an awesome movie, a must for your Christian movie collection.
I thank the Almighty GOD for JESUS in our life's.
Well Done. Dec 22, 2005
This is a great movie, I love it because I was saved about a year after recieving this movie as a gift, it helped open my eyes so that I left the LDS church, leaving the competetive race to earn my way to heaven, to find the loving father that I always wanted, and never want to leave even if I could become a "god" I would chose to stay with the king that died for me.
The story of Jesus: "He has Risen!" Oct 6, 2005
I like this film because it is a sound scriptural based movie about the Lord Jesus.( I love all Jesus films!) Once again the story is narrated well and the acting is a good enough to keep the viewer's attention. This film shown in several languages actually is an outstanding learning tool for better understanding the message and mission of Jesus - and to understand His Truth can surely shape the course of your life! amen!
