Summaries

Taken verbatim from Scripture, this captivating one-man performance follows Jesus from his Nativity to the Sermon on the Mount. Filmed on a magnificent stage and accompanied by a powerful musical score, watch Luke's Gospel come to life.

In a captivating one-man dramatization, Shakespearean actor Leonardo Defilippis vividly brings to life Saint Luke's accounts of Jesus' infancy and early ministry. Defilippis transforms himself into a multitude of characters - the aged and suspicious Zechariah, the trusting and humble young Mary, the cynical Pharisees, and the repentant Saint Peter - in a performance before a live audience, which is taken word-for-word from the first six chapters of the Saint Luke's Gospel. The expressive musical score and majestic set immerse viewers in an ancient Jewish atmosphere. This beautiful film is a wonderful meditation for Advent and Christmas.—Saint Luke Productions
