Synopsis:
Set in a time-bending, darkly comic world between heaven and hell, THE LAST DAYS OF JUDAS ISCARIOT reexamines the plight and fate of the New Testament’s most infamous and unexplained sinner. Equally pious and profane, the story of JUDAS transcends religion, offering a compelling, gritty and hilarious look at free will, destiny, faith, forgiveness and redemption.
