Storyline
The first-ever feature film based on the Gospels, From the Manger to the Cross, was shot in Palestine in 1912. Throughout investigations leading to New York City, Nantes and Jerusalem, Première Passion digs out the story of this historic shooting, back in early twentieth century Palestine.While casting a closer look upon the first cinematographical epic on Jesus Christ, this documentary takes one on a journey back to the origins of cinema, questioning the connections between image and religion.
