603: JEROME PRIEUR, GERARD MORDILLAT: Origins of Christianity
The makers of this rigorous, ten-hour filmed examination of the early years (A.D. 30-150) of Christianity discuss the creation of a documentary work that is at once erudite, provocative, and challenging. It created a sensation in France equaled only by Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ and, perhaps, The Da Vinci Code. Prieur and Mordillat are Paris-based filmmakers, scholars, and authors whose previous work includes Corpus Christi and the best-selling book Jesus après Jesus. Garry Wills, the distinguished Northwestern Univ. scholar, moderates.
Presented in partnership with Facets Multi-Media.
