시놉시스
These days it seems that nothing is as polarizing and controversial as religious belief. Everywhere one goes it seems that people are asking the question: Do we even need religion? Is it limiting our understanding? What kind of world is being produced by these faith systems? Regardless of your answers to these questions, it is hard to deny that worship still plays an important role in many people's lives and many people simply do not understand where others are coming from. Believers is a unique exploration of those questions related to faith by focusing the lens on five of the world's belief systems, Agnosticism, and the new Atheism. The film follows Sacha Sewhdat's personal journey towards understanding as he searches for the value of religion in modern society. With honesty and objectivity Sacha explores what it means to believe in a higher power or what it would mean to let those beliefs go. It will both inform and challenge what you know about religion in the 21st Century.

목수인 나자렛 예수(윌렘 데포 분)는 로마인들을 위해 십자가를 만든다. 한낱 목수에 불과하지만 그에게는 기적을 행하는 능력과 선천적으로 풍기는 고귀한 분위기가 있었다. 그런 이유로 3년 동안 악마의 유혹을 견디고 하느님의 시험에 들어야하는 공생활에 접어들기 전에 열혈당의 주목을 받는다. 열혈당의 목적은 이스라엘의 독립을 무력으로 쟁취하는 것. 이들은 가롯 유다(하비 키이텔 분)를 예수에게 보내 열혈당 가입을 권유한다. 그러나 예수는 이에 응하지 않는다. 이스라엘 독립에는 찬성하지만, 다른 방법으로 독립을 이루고 싶었던 것이다. 그 방법은 사랑이었다. 유다는 이러한 예수의 모습에 감동받아 그의 방식을 따르기도 한다. 그리고 예수가 공생활을 시작하자 그의 제자가 된다. 3년 후, 예수는 성서의 기록대로 십자가에 매달린다. 이때 하나님이 보낸 수호천사라고 자칭하는 천사가 하나님의 명령이라며 예수에게 십자가에서 내려와서 보통 인간으로 살아가라고 한다. 하늘의 천사들마저도 인간 세상의 삶을 동경한다고 하며, 예수를 유혹하자 천사의 말을 사실대로 믿은 예수는 마리아 막달레나와 결혼을 해 아이들까지 낳고 살면서 인간의 행복을 경험한다. 그러나 예수가 나이가 든 후, 죽어가는 병상에서 그제서야 그것이 악마의 유혹이었음을 깨닫게 되는데.
