The Face: Jesus in Art

This documentary chronicles the starkly diverse representations of Jesus across art history and cultures worldwide. Narrated by Mel Gibson, Ricardo Montalban, Bill Moyers, Edward Herrmann, Patricia Neal, and others, the program employs state-of-the-art digital technology and motion-control photography to reconstruct and reposition works back to their original locations. Striking digital morphing sequences vividly illustrate how the image of Jesus has evolved through the ages, while distinctive effects virtually reconstruct art that has been destroyed or lost. A sweeping, visually riveting tour of art history, The Face: Jesus In Art is a documentary of stunning beauty and unprecedented innovation.
