| Description: |
Jesus’ Passion story is presented each Lent in countless churches every year. But one play presented by the inhabitants of the village of Oberammergau, in Bavaria, Germany, may be one of the longest-running performance of all. Staged every ten years since 1634, the play makes an impact not only on the villagers who portray the characters but on all who see it as well. In this six-session DVD study, which was filmed on location in Germany and contains behind-the-scenes footage of the production, Rob Fuquay follows the biblical story of the Passion and shows how this amazing play has been used both as a ritual of praise and later as a weapon through its anti-Semitic past. Sessions: 1) The power of a vow (8 min.); 2) The importance of community (7 min.); 3) The role of ritual (6 min.); 4) Living the story (8 min.); 5) Telling a better story (9 min.); 6) The power of the cross (8 min.). Includes leader's guide and paperback book. CLOSED CAPTIONED. |
