The Messiah (2007 film)
The Messiah, also referred to as Jesus, Jesus, the Spirit of God,Good Tidings of the Savior (Persian: بِشارت مُنجی, romanized: Bešārat-e Monjjy), is a 2007 Iranian film directed by Nader Talebzadeh (1953—2022), depicting the life of Jesus from an Islamic perspective, based not only on the canonical gospels, but also the Qur'an, and, it would seem, the Gospel of Barnabas. The latter conforms to the Islamic interpretation of the origins of Christianity. Iranian actor Ahmad Soleimani Nia plays the role of Jesus. Some Islamic organizations cite it in support of the Islamic view of Jesus.
