A very good documentary, produced by The History Channel and Paulist Productions and narrated by Martin Sheen, about the Twelve Apostles.

It also deals with the relationships between between the Twelve and Saints Mary Magdalene and Paul of Tarsus. This was, and its follow up documentary THE STORY OF THE APOSTLE PAUL: THE MAN WHO TURNED THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN, were two of the last project that the late Fr. Ellwood Keiser, C.S.P. produced.
