If you're a fan of religious studies or just interested in an overview of some of the historical references and questions regarding what happened after Jesus was nailed to the cross, this quality documentary presents various scientific and historical evidence to speculate on a number of theories regarding Christ's life after crucifixion. By first showing how historical texts (including original gospels) give ample room for him to have survived the ordeal, and addressing some of the pitfalls of assuming that he did, this documentary goes on to explain various traditions and stories of Christ's life after the cross. Before the film's end, viewers are taken from the south of France to hear theories of the Knights Templar and traditions of Catharism, all the way to Kashmir in India where some minor groups maintain that Christ may have died in a Buddhist monastery. Overall this documentary is not overtly spiritual, but not anti-religious. I think it's good for people with scientific and inquiring minds interested in learning more theories about the latter half of the new testament.
