Filming has officially begun on La versione di Giuda, the new film written and directed by Giulio Base!
Featuring an international cast including Rupert Everett, Paz Vega, John Savage, Darko Peric, Tomasz Kot, and Abel Ferrara, the film is produced by Agnus Dei Production, Minerva Pictures, and Agresywna Banda, in collaboration with Rai Cinema and supported by the Calabria Film Commission.
The shoot, which will last four weeks, is set in various picturesque locations in Calabria, including Curinga, Corigliano-Rossano, Cleto, the Sila National Park, and Cosenza.
The plot follows the life of Judas, born in a brothel and raised amid hardships, suffering, and violence. Over the years, pain hardens him, and he reluctantly becomes the protector of the place where he was born and raised. However, his life changes dramatically when he meets a young man named Jesus, who saves Mary Magdalene, one of his charges, from being stoned. Captivated by such mercy, Judas decides to follow him, leading to his agonizing decision of betrayal.
