Overview

The Savior is a historical religious drama film that tells the story of Jesus Christ through the perspective of the Gospel of Luke, set against the turbulent backdrop of Roman Palestine — a province seething with rebellion and kept under the iron grip of Roman power. The film spans the miraculous birth of Jesus to the young virgin Mary in Bethlehem and follows his quiet upbringing in Nazareth, a period largely unrecorded in scripture. It also explores the early death of Joseph, his adoptive father, which occurs before Jesus reaches thirty and embarks on his ministry. A sweeping yet intimate portrait of history's most consequential life.
