English Summary:
The Last Temptation of Christ is a 1988 epic drama film directed by Martin Scorsese. Written by Paul Schrader with uncredited rewrites from Scorsese and Jay Cocks, the film is an adaptation of Nikos Kazantzakis' controversial 1955 novel of the same name. The film, starring Willem Dafoe, Harvey Keitel, Barbara Hershey, Andre Gregory, Harry Dean Stanton and David Bowie, was shot entirely in Morocco.
Jesus of Nazareth is a carpenter in Roman-occupied Judea, torn between his own desires and his knowledge that God has a plan for him. His conflict results in self-loathing, and he collaborates with the Romans to crucify Jewish rebels.
Judas Iscariot, a friend of Jesus' originally sent to kill him for collaboration, instead suspects that Jesus is the Messiah and asks him to lead a liberation war against the Romans. Jesus replies that his message is love of mankind; whereupon Judas joins Jesus in his ministry, but threatens to kill him if he strays from the purpose of rebellion.
Hungarian Summary:
Jézus keresi az elrendeltetését. Egyrészt véghez szeretné vinni Isten tervét, másrészt viszont meg kell bírkóznia emberi érzéseivel: a kétséggel, a gyengeséggel és a vággyal. A Sátán által kísértett Megváltó élete elérkezik ahhoz a pillanathoz, amikor választania kell. Az egyszerű, emberi élet és a szerelem lehetősége veszélybe sodorhatja a legfontosabb küldetést.
