About the film
For the first time in history, the story of Jesus in ASL.
For the first time in history, viewers have the unique opportunity to experience the story of Jesus presented as a feature film entirely in American Sign Language. JESUS: a Deaf Missions film takes you on a journey with Jesus and his disciples. Witness His miracles, His transformative power, and His challenges to the religious elite in a time of high tension under Roman rule in Judea.
The Jews were anticipating a Messiah, but Jesus was not what they expected. What the religious leaders orchestrated to be Jesus’ end instead changed the world forever. Immerse yourself in Jesus’ love as He offers hope, forgiveness, and eternal life.
Don’t miss this historic film — produced for Deaf by Deaf — with a cast fluent in American Sign Language.

“It was incredibly moving to experience a Jesus movie entirely in American Sign Language — my heart language. I can’t wait to watch this movie with my family, Deaf Teen Quest family, and my friends!”
