Caesar’s Last Breath

** GUARDIAN SCIENCE BOOK OF THE YEAR 2017 **

In 52BC, the future of Rome and Gaul - and that of their peoples - hangs in the balance. It will be determined in three great encounters. The battles are the culmination of a momentous personal duel between two great leaders. A duel, which this documentary recreates.

Julius Caesar's relentless pursuit of power pits him against a mighty force, the battle-hardened tribes of Gaul who once roamed France. The Roman General wants to consolidate power in Rome and decides that military victory and conquest is his route to the top. He sets up to bring all of Gaul under his control, triggering a series of events that would bring his army to the brink of defeat. For centuries the truth about exactly what happened has been shrouded in mystery. Now archaeologists are uncovering what really happened. This documentary explores the events of the war and the forgotten stories of the Gaul people themselves.

Based on the best-selling religious studies book by Joseph Atwill, this documentary shows that Jesus is not a historical figure, the events of Jesus' life were based on a Roman military campaign, his supposed second coming refers to an event that already occurred, and the Gospels were written by a family of Caesars who left us documents to prove it.
