BBC – Press Office – BBC One presents The Passion for Easter 2008
Jesus with crown of thorns
The Passion will be stripped across Easter week on BBC One, drawing to a dramatic climax on Easter Sunday.
 
Visually arresting and rich in colour, the story is rooted in the tangled and chaotic world in which it took place – the city of Jerusalem during Passover week.
 
Set in the political and religious context of the time, it combines both narrative tension and thematic power to convey the extraordinary events that took place that week in a bold and distinctive way.
 
This production places the audience at the heart of the action by telling the story from three points of view – the religious authorities, the Romans and Jesus.
