Part 1
Two-part historical drama. Five hundred years ago a revolutionary priest named Martin Luther changed the face of Christendom and the path of European civilization forever.
Five hundred years ago a revolutionary priest changed the face of Christendom and the path of European civilization forever. Risking his life and academic reputation, facing damnation and purgatory in 1517, he pinned his inflammatory 95 Theses to the church door in the Catholic church and the western world would never be the same again. His name was Martin Luther. This is a story of a group of people alive 500 years ago whose internal convictions led them to forge a new path - one that ultimately changed the world.
In German with English subtitles.
