What happens

Marie de Nazareth est un film français de Jean Delannoy, sorti en 1995. Le film raconte la naissance, la vie, la mort et la résurrection de Jésus, à travers le regard de sa mère, Marie de Nazareth, présentée comme la sainte Vierge Marie, humble femme, sans péché, honorée d'être la mère du Christ. Elle souffre des tortures infligées à son fils. L'apôtre Jean vient en aide à Marie, à la demande de Jésus après sa Passion. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
