When Christ appears on an Adelaide beach in the middle of a long hot winter, Pete’s as surprised as anyone. Moments later they’re having a fistfight …
It’s the Second Coming – faked by a political party to boost polls – and if there’s one thing Pete can’t stand, it’s actors.
Pete is a car crash of a man – horrible yet irresistible to look at. Emotionally scarred by childhood tragedy, the recent death of a relative has sent him spiralling.
He sees a chance for redemption by exposing the scam and gives everything he can for a moment of truth.
The Fake Jesus is a black comedy that takes a wrecking ball to media and advertising saturation. With manic pace and unforgettable characters, it sets fire to the lot with apocalyptic rage.
