One hot spring day in the sprawling metropolis of Jerusalem, a young rabbi has been tried and sentenced to death by the Roman government for daring to revolt against Caesar’s unjust rule over the people of Judea.

From the time of their first meeting to the night of his betrayal, our story follows the two men tangling further into each other on a march towards their own dooms, for so it is written.
