Synopsis

On the Impossibility of an Homage

Given a portrait, who is responsible for the image we see, the painter or the subject? Ion used to be a a rockstar of Ballet in Communist Romania. When we first discussed the possibility of a portrait, Ion was initially thrilled. He’d been dreaming that someday there’d be a film about him. But during the filmmaking process Ion finds it hard to let go.

The Mosaic Church

In 2004, a routine prison renovation in Megiddo, Israel, led to an astonishing discovery—what is believed to be the oldest known Christian place of worship. At its center lies a mosaic bearing the first public inscription declaring Jesus as God. Narrated by Bear Grylls, this documentary dives into the site’s historical, theological, and political significance, featuring expert insights from historians and theologians.
