Who was Mary Magdalen? Was she the love of Jesus' life? Or simply the strongest of his followers? How did she become the bad girl of the Bible...the forbidden woman...the saint who was made into a prostitute?

She stood by the cross after the male disciples had fled. She watched His body laid to rest, fearless in her grief. On the third day it was to her that Jesus first appeared. Some say she was the closest to Jesus of all his followers. But the would call her a prostitute. Either way, dhe is clearly one of the most central figures in both religious and female history.

Hosted by actress Penelope An Miller and directed by Emmy award-winning producer Charles Stuart, V.I.E.W. Video is proud to present this penetrating film that explores the mysteries still surrounding Mary Magdalen, one of the least understood women in history.

This video doesn't dodge any of the portraits, but carefully examines them in the light of Scriptural and historical evidence. One gets the impression that this video is more interested in truth than propaganda (a refreshing change).
