Name of Event: Film of the Blessed Mary Organisation(s) holding the event: Husaini Islamic Centre Peterborough Short description of event: A screening of 'The Blessed St Mary': "a moving adaptation of the early life of Mary, the mother of Jesus. The film has been produced independently and has received favorable reviews internationally. Borrowing from a wide range of historical sources 'The Blessed St Mary' brings to life Mary's troubled childhood in a manner that is both moving and thought provoking. By placing Mary at the focal point of the narrative the films approach is evidently distinct from other biblical adaptations, which have tended to concentrate on male, rather than female biblical role models. This film helps to readdress the balance by showing Mary to be an integral part of the mission of Jesus Christ. Whatever your religious persuasion you will be sure to enjoy this sensitive and thoughtful piece of filmmaking which has become indicative of Persian world cinema."
