Watch Jesus of Nazareth

Like many opera composers, literary figures, historians, and academics of the day, the producers of Jesus of Nazareth focused on a popular cultural revival icon. This silent film is told from the unique experience of Jesus' parents. Incredibly large numbers of extras, and authentic, on-location backdrops are utilized to convey the life of Christ from a prophetic birth, to death at the hands of the Romans and His critics at Calvary.
