About Jesus of Montreal
A group of actors putting on an interpretive Passion Play in Montreal begin to experience a meshing of their characters and their private lives as the production takes form against the growing opposition of the Catholic church.
Directed by Denys Arcand, Jesus of Montreal leans on a strong ensemble — Lothaire Bluteau, Catherine Wilkening, Johanne-Marie Tremblay — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1989.
