Synopsis:

In The Virgin Mary, dramatic reconstructions and stunning visual effects are combined with the latest findings from historians and New Testament scholars to recreate the story of this remarkable woman. It explores the history behind the miraculous Bible story to reveal the living, breathing mother of Christianity. The picture that emerges is very different from that of popular belief - the serene young woman, dressed in blue silken robes, was largely a creation of later writers and Renaissance painters. Mary, or Miriam as she was more likely called, was a child of no more than 12 or 13 when the custom of the time dictated that she was sold into marriage to an older man. Probably uneducated and with few rights, she found herself pregnant while still unmarried, a dangerous position in first-century Palestine. But Mary survived and went on to give birth to a baby who would transform the course of human history. For Christians and non-Christians alike, this new portrayal of the real Mary will be as much of an inspiration as the stories that have grown up around her over the last 2000 years.
