The country is perpetually under threat from terrorist powers and the common man walks unaware of the threats and the attacks that our Government controls and prevents.

The Vatican Museum 3D

The movie The Vatican Museum 3D focuses on the Catholic Church which is often seen as an institution perpetually at odds with modernity, clinging to Latin as its official language and maintaining its all-male hierarchy, topped by an absolute monarch in the form of the pope, centuries after such a style of governance went out of fashion elsewhere.
The movie depicts the 54 galleries or salas that lead to the grandest of finales, the Sistine Chapel and Michelangelo’s “Last Judgement”, nestle alongside Saint Peter’s Basilica and take up a good chunk of the Vatican City State’s 44 hectares. They contain one of the world’s most extraordinary collections, built up over six centuries.
The film gets up close and personal with works by Giotto, Van Gogh, Caravaggio, Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci, Chagall and Dali.
The movie provides intimate view of the artwork. You can examine the walls and ceiling of the Sistine Chapel at closer quarters. But the papal collection isn’t just any museum. Beyond the peerless artistic merits of the items included, and their historical significance, they have another, spiritual dimension, the connection between the sublime and the divine.
