Ich, Judas

Ich, Judas

2017 · Drama

His name is the symbol of the traitor: Judas, the disciple of Jesus who delivered him to the cross. But is he really seen correctly or is our entire interpretation, our entire view of Judas not based on a mistake? Ben Becker becomes Judas and defends himself - with a text by Walter Jens, he puts the story into perspective and makes us think again about the supposedly clear-cut case of Judas. He stands in Berlin Cathedral, accompanied by the organ of cathedral organist Andreas Sieling, and makes it clear that he, Judas, cannot be a traitor because there was no betrayal. After all, what did he reveal that everyone didn't know anyway? That Jesus claimed to be the Son of God? After all, he didn't hide it himself. Where was he? Thousands knew that anyway...
