    This doc delves deep into the history of the Shroud and magnificently presents facts from both sides of the issue. For example, the doc shows how carbon dating does not prove the shroud existed before the 12th century when it was in France. However it also shows that the shroud contains fibers that are from plant life found only in what is now present day Israel. All in all, a terrific job of presenting all the facts in this shroud.

    I loved that they go to both sides on the issue of the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin. They try to provide a non biast opinion based solely on the facts given. Very well done.

    Great documentary about the Shroud and a lot of new information as well as the old stuff from the past. Great to know it is still being preserved and I personally believe it is the true image of Jesus!
