The Gift of Peace: The First Six Chapters of St. Luke's Gospel (Trailer)
Episode 11 • 1m 22s
In a captivating one-man dramatization, Shakespearean actor Leonardo Defilippis vividly brings to life Saint Luke’s account of Jesus’ infancy and early ministry. Defilippis transforms himself into a multitude of characters - the aged and suspicious Zechariah, the trusting and humble young Mary, the cynical Pharisees, and the repentant Saint Peter – in a performance before a live audience, which is taken word-for-word from the first six chapters of Saint Luke’s Gospel. The expressive musical score and majestic set immerse viewers in an ancient Jewish atmosphere. This beautiful film is a wonderful meditation for Advent and Christmas.
Since 1980, Saint Luke Productions has been inspiring audiences with dramas focused on the beauty and richness of the Catholic faith. To learn more about our mission and to explore our broad selection of live theater, film and audio productions, visit www.stlukeproductions.com.
