María Magdalena

Excellent portrayal of the political tension of Palestine in the 1st Century. The turmoil between Jews and Romans is vivid. The problem lies with Jesus, with yet another White portrayal, a severe insult to the historical man. I find more intriguing the story of Magdalene and the obvious Feminist propaganda, than this Jesus full of Christian embellishments.

As the episodes went by, it caught my attention more and more.

The selection of the cast is incredibly accurate and the production really makes you feel in context. Everyone's acting is so convincing, transmiting to you as viewer all their emotions. Having the whole story of Jesus and his apostles in a motion representation is great, and the story of Magdalena, being a biblical character whom there is no much information about, is very well developed. The show really makes you reflect on what life was back then, and all the struggle they have to go through to achieve their mission, which sometimes can be hard to imagine by only reading biblical cites. The story of Jesus and Magdalena are very well linked to each other. At no time the series feels slow and at the end of each chapter they leave you with an eagerness to know what will happen next. They make the story very exciting and it is definitely something you have to watch no matter your age.

Although there is obvious artistic liberty with what we don't know about Maria Magdalena, the story is plausible. On the other hand when Jesus speaks and moves, he is completely believable and totally emotionally impactful. His words are biblically inerrant; his development as fully human enlightening. Bravo to the writer; bravo to the actors.

An excelent mbetmixtof documentary, fiction and a bit of soup opera. This formula made Maria Magdalena a great enternainment.

Just real followers of Jesus will understand the serie. Let the Holy Spirit fill you and enlighten your understanding with his truly love. Mathew 7:15-20.
