The actual location of Jesus’s baptism had disappeared from human memory, lost in time for almost 1,000 years.

The Baptism of Jesus is a spiritual journey through an archaeological detective story, a story which uncovers the pieces of the ancient mystery of where Christ was baptised. Why was the site lost? How was it discovered and what was found there? What is the meaning of baptism in Christianity?

Join us for this exclusive screening, followed by a Q&A with director Mustafa Gouverneur, and find out about this remarkable story of the site’s rediscovery and the ongoing excavations taking place there.
