Synopsis
Sue Johnston presents The Virgin Mary, a documentary that combines dramatic reconstructions with visual effects to depict the life of a key figure in Christianity. The film draws on recent findings from historians and New Testament scholars to challenge traditional portrayals of Mary. It reveals that the serene image of a young woman in blue robes is largely a product of later artistic interpretations rather than historical fact. The documentary runs for 50 minutes and aired on BBC ONE in 2002.
