CV NEWS FEED // A docudrama about the Blessed Mother titled “I Am The Immaculate Conception” will be released in theaters across the United States on December 12.
According to a press release from Alexis Walkenstein Enterprises, the movie is directed and produced by Michal Kondrat, a Polish director behind the movies Love and Mercy, Purgatory, and Prophet. The movie was also created with the help of the Marian Fathers.
The press release relates that in 1858, Our Lady of Lourdes revealed herself to St. Bernadette as “the Immaculate Conception.”
It continues, “During the seasons of Advent and Christmas, filmmakers invite audiences to ponder why Mary presents herself this way. In I Am The Immaculate Conception, a group of eminent experts, including the Marian Fathers, analyze Greek texts of the Holy Scripture, revelations and the dogma of the Immaculate Conception.”
The press releases states that the movie results “in new interpretation of Scripture passages revealing Mary, the Mother of Christ, and her extraordinary role in the divine plan for the salvation of the world.”
Kondrat said, “We are so grateful to the Marian Fathers for their collaboration on this film that is going to bring audiences to a point of reflection on Mary during the season where we honor her and her role in God’s plan for salvation.”
He added, “This is a movie for today’s world in need of the sound teaching of the Church and the presence of Our Mother, Mary, the Immaculate Conception. We encourage families, parishes and schools to see this movie together to grow in their love and devotion to Mary and her son Jesus.”
Kondrat continued:
The Virgin Mary is precisely who our broken world needs as an intercessor, a motherly guide and a way to her son Jesus. I pray this movie is an inspiration to all Americans looking for the divine and to understand what Mary’s story means in today’s world. I pray that Catholics in America flood the theaters for an on-screen encounter with the Immaculate Conception.
Tickets can be purchased at Fathom Events.
