La madre

First century. After witnessing the most tragic episode of Jesus's life, former Praetorian Guard Lucius Phaedrus seeks refuge in Ephesus with his family. Yet, the relentless power of Rome looms over them, threatening to tear away what they hold most dear. As Lucius confronts the henchmen of Emperor Caligula—who seeks to seize a relic containing the blood of Jesus—his wife, Flavia, finds solace in a woman who understands love, loss, and suffering better than anyone: Mary of Nazareth. Through her own voice, the most intimate story of Jesus's mother unfolds—the tale of a woman who watched her son grow and had to learn to let him go; the woman who wept at the foot of the cross and remained by his side until the very end.
