Synopsis by Rose of Sharon Winter
The Knights Templar are a mysterious order whose roots go back to medieval times and the Crusades. The religious order of monks is reputed to have fought the infidels in the Crusades, and to have gained possession of the Ark of the Covenant and the Grail from which Jesus drank at the Last Supper. The history of the ancient Knights Templar, as well as the resurgence of interest in the order today, are the subjects of this documentary. Archival material and interviews with modern scholars and adherents tell the story of the mystical order of the Knights Templar.
