History

The film presents the power of a steel, completely sinful Rome and at the same time, the courageous attitude and varied Christian action and mental superiority of the qualified military leader of Thessaloniki. Dimitrios' fiery deception and persecution of the faithful propose evangelical truth and morality, sacrificing everything for the faith, mainly leading young people to it. The patron saint of Thessaloniki remains a role model.
