Scorsese reframes Jesus’ story through the Virgin Mary in ‘The Saints’ special

Academy Award-winning filmmaker Martin Scorsese is turning his lens to the Virgin Mary in a new special episode of "The Saints," exploring themes of faith, love and sacrifice at the heart of the Easter story.

"The story of Jesus – his life, his teachings, his example, his resurrection – is intertwined with the life of his mother," Scorsese told viewers in the special.

"She was chosen by God. She was a vessel, and she was a mother who loved her son."
