ORLANDO, Fla. — A new short film on Jesus’ crucifixion attempts to reach youth and young adults with the gospel using the “anime” style popular in Asia, especially in quake-ravaged Japan.
The nine-minute film, “My Last Day,” was released in April by the “Jesus Film” Project, a ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ International. The story is told from the perspective of one of the thieves crucified alongside Jesus Christ. Using some of the dialogue from the original “Jesus Film,” the short film shows the thief grieving over his guilt as he realizes Christ’s innocence. “It’s perfect to provide opportunities to open doors to engage the ‘media generation’ and could be a prelude to effectively presenting the gospel to tens of thousands of young people across the globe,” said Jim Green, “Jesus Film”. Project executive director. “My Last Day” can be viewed at http://www.globalshortfilmnetwork.com/my-last-day-p-344-c-8.html.
