本片讲述的是三位主人公,因为神秘的“抹大拉的玛丽亚”而相互认识的故事。声名狼藉的导演托尼正在拍摄一部关于耶稣的电影,这部电影极端地描写了教士们的阴暗和狠毒,所以在上映的时候备受指责。电影中的女主人公玛丽在扮演完抺大拉的玛丽之后,被这个角色所感染,并前往耶路撒冷开始了一段启迪灵魂之路。同时在纽约,一个叫泰德的电视记者正在准备一支探索耶稣精神的纪录片。这三个人物的命运就戏剧性地走到了一起。Three characters linked by the mythical Maria Maddalena - Mary Magdalene... Tony Childress, an infamous, egotistical and obsessive actor/director is playing the lead role of Jesus in his controversial new film THIS IS MY BLOOD. When the shoot wraps, Marie Palesi, his lead actress, is left alone in Jerusalem, drained, empty. 'Selfless'. Into the void within her is poured the spirit of Mary Magdalene, and Marie embarks on a profound journey towards enlightenment. Meanwhile, in New York City, tv journalist Ted Younger begins his own quest for spiritual truth through his documentary about the life of Christ. When the premiere of Tony's film becomes the target of bomb threats by the vengeful religious Right, the lives and paths of these three characters come dramatically together.
