Vangelo Secondo Maria plot
Maria is a girl from Nazareth who loves the stories in the Bible as much as Don Quixote loves adventure stories. As a woman, she is not allowed to do anything, not even learn to read and write. But in the synagogue she listens enthusiastically to the prophets, who demand explanations from God as equals. She dreams of freedom, knowledge, adventure, escape. And she rebels against God's plan, even to the point of ultimate disobedience. Joseph is her teacher and accomplice, a charming and powerful man, very different from the hunchbacked old man in the holy paintings.
