Judas, a seasoned thief, finds himself in the market square where Christ is giving a sermon and his apostles are collecting alms. He follows them and steals their money, only to be caught red-handed.

But when he fails to make them understand, he realizes that Christ’s teachings may sink into oblivion without benefiting humanity.
