Independent filmmaking at its finest. A story of the three Magi (Wisemen) and those in their orbits that is highly plausible as they follow the Star of Bethlehem in search of the Messiah's birth. Much to the displeasure of King Herod, his sister Salome, henchmen and, of course, the Dark Angel, the film takes you in from the beginning and doesn't let go. Beautifully shot and acted. A universal message delivered without being 'preachy' or brow-beating with 'religious' dogma. Highly recommended.
