Two episodes documentary about the rise of Christianity in Rome, from the testimonies of the early Jews who had welcomed the announcement of the resurrection of Christ until the martyrdom of the Apostles Paul and Peter.
The hosts Alessandro Sortino and Claudia Benassi in the traffic and the confusion of a large modern city, follow the traces left by the Roman protagonists of the Gospel, between Basilicas, catacombs, roads and excavations.
They enter places inaccessible to the public and, with the help of expert archaeologists, biblists and theologians, show the testimonies of those crucial years, between 30 and 70 A.D., which marked the history of Christianity.
The idea is to tell in parallel the birth of Christianity and the transformation of Rome into imperial capital.
