Judas' mother was a prostitute and when she became pregnant she did not know who the father was. She died giving birth to a child whom the girls of the brothel named Judas. That child was not yet a boy when he killed the man who tried to abuse him. That child soon grows up, the pain hardens him early on and he becomes the leader of the harlots: he gets rich selling those women in the brothel. When a young man named Jesus saves Mary Magdalene (one of his girls) from a stoning, Judas is enraptured, leaves everything and takes to follow that 'healer'. Judas the sinner, Judas the exploiter, he will be the last among the apostles to be called. Then followed the years of preaching and wandering of Jesus and his apostles, the years of uninterrupted cohabitation, of successes, defeats, triumphs and fear. The fateful 'Last Supper' and the facts of the passion that we know will inevitably come... ... but the passion seen by Judas is a heartbreaking confession: he becomes a fundamental instrument for the fulfillment of the Scriptures, but for this to happen he must transform himself into one of the worst wicked men of all time, even though he may be among the most generous: he gives his life. He betrays his master by condemning himself to eternal damnation as long as what is written is fulfilled. Of all the apostles, he will be the only one to die with Jesus. The man who lived by selling women dies by selling a man. He will be the first true "Christian" to die. Is Judas therefore the first 'martyr'?
