Mesih, more commonly and officially referred to as 'The Messiah' [1][2][3][4], 'Jesus'[5], "Good Tidings of the Savior" in Farsi[6], 'Jesus, the Spirit of God'[7], 'Messia'[8] is a 2008 Iranian film from the Islamic Republic of Iran, directed by Nader Talebzadeh, 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.[9]

Iranian actor, Ahmad Soleimani Nia plays the role of Jesus.

The director sees his film "as an Islamic answer to Western productions like Mel Gibson's 2004 blockbuster "The Passion of the Christ," which he praised as admirable but quite simply "wrong"."[10] it is billed as the Islamic "The Passion of the Christ

The film has two endings, one from the Christian bible and one from the Qur'an.

The Vatican has given the movie an award for promoting interfaith understanding.

It is a two-hour-plus feature film and a TV series shot for Iranian TV.[11]. The movie will be adapted into a television series to be shown on Iranian TV later this year.[12]

Variety state that "With over 1,000 actors and extras, it is one of the largest film productions ever attempted in Iran. It will air as 20 45-minute episodes after a theatrical version is released here."
