JESUS (Spanish, Latin American) Judas betrays Jesus; Jesus is arrested
The religious drama “Judas' Gospel,” directed by Italian director Giulio Base and starring Rupert Everett, Paz Vega, John Savage and Abel Ferrara, has closed its first pre-sales, with distributor Plus Films KFT picking up the rights for Latin America.
The film, now in post, recently wrapped filming in Italy’s scenic Southern Calabria region. The film is being offered to buyers by Italy’s Minerva Pictures on the sidelines of the Toronto Film Festival.
Base is a prolific actor-director whose many film and television directing credits include “The Anarchist Banker,” which launched from the Venice Official Selection in 2019. He is also the Artistic Director of the Turin Film Festival.
