He wants Tina to play her as a fallen woman that he can save, but she won't play that part. She's discovered the 'lost' Gospel of Mary Magdalene and she has a better idea.

- The story of Mary Magdalene has universal appeal and is attracting much interest from people of ALL faiths and walks of life. "Who Framed Mary Magdalene?" makes it clear that Mary Magdalene was one of Jesus' most wise, respected and evolved apostles, and then delves into the question as to why her life story had been changed, making her out to having been a prostitute. Was it specifically because of her wisdom and powerful leadership position, during a time when women weren't allowed to have a voice, that she was subjected to a smear campaign that lasted nearly 2,000 years...and was there something even broader at stake? Has what happened to her and what conspired around it affected humanity as a whole?" Find out why the answer to the last question is a resounding yes. In this film genres are uniquely mixed. "Who Framed Mary Magdalene?" opens with a comedic "If the shoe were on the other foot" spoof...then later segues into exploring what's been discovered about Mary Magdalene and expert interviews with Ann Graham Brock, whose Harvard dissertation paper was turned into the book, 'Mary Magdalene, The First Apostle: A Struggle For Authority' and with cultural historian Kayleen Asbo, whose subject of study has been Mary Magdalene for years. Collectively the pieces of the puzzle are put together, uncovering the likely ulterior motive behind the infamous framing of Mary Magdalene, along with a call to Hollywood to finally stop participating and to help set the record straight.
- 'Mary Magdalene' is separate from you, but comes from you. It is a brilliant, explosive, fierce and passionate gem, the kind that catches light but can also cut. As I said last night, the woman's body is there to contain and resist; she fights the frame and ideology all at the same time, forcing us to think about how images of the body both seduce and confuse us at every turn. The film does not offer easy answers but rather stirs us to move through the world so much more aware. A film about touching that no one can touch. ...........Lynne Sachs

- A found-footage movie about how Magdalen College, Oxford, has been depicted in cinema.
- The story opens with Mary Magdalene as a notorious courtesan of Caperneum. She has two principal lovers, Syrius Superbus (a Roman, living in Caperneum, who is married to Portia, a follower of Christ), and Judas Iscariot. Canis Proculus, a Roman noble, coming to visit Syrius, meets Mary at one of her bacchanalian orgies on her roof top and falls in love with her. She returns his affection and casts aside both Judas and Syrius, who turn their hatred on Canis as the result. After a week of happiness, one day when Canis is away. Mary Magdalene sees Christ and is overcome by his magnetism. Influenced by Portia she decides to forsake her sinful life and follows Christ. In the meantime, Canis has told Syrius that he wishes to marry Mary, and Syrius determines to prevent this at any cost. Judas finds that Mary is following Christ to Jerusalem, so he and Syrius decide to go with them without proclaiming their identity, and Syrins writes a letter to Canis, telling him that Mary is unfaithful and has gone away with him (Syrius). One day, Mary looking out her window, sees Canis arrive at Jerusalem and he sees her; they meet, but she tells him she can never become his wife until he believes in Christ. Judas and Syrius, angered at Mary's repeated rejections of their overtures, and believing that this is due to a material love they fancy she has for Christ (instead of a spiritual love) determine to betray the Master. They obtain a warrant from Pilate, find Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane, and with Caiaphas, the High Priest, succeed in arresting Him, Mary hears of this and rushes to the barracks, warns Canis, who comes out with his soldiers to stop the outrages. Seeing the warrant of Pilate for Christ's arrest, Canis realizes that force is useless and decides to appeal to Pilate, who is his friend. Pilate promises to do what he can to save the Master and Canis returns to Mary, only to find she has left the house. While sitting waiting for her, a spiritual voice comes to him, which seems to be the voice of Christ, and which says, "Seek for Mary in the Garden of Gethsemane." He rushes out and gathering a body of soldiers makes his way as quickly as possible to the garden. In the meantime Mary has gone to the garden to assuage her grief and has been found there by Syrius, who tries to persuade her to run away with him on condition of his trying to save the Master. Mary refuses and Syrius angered beyond measure urges the crowd to attack her as a follower of the Nazarene. Just as they are about to tear her to pieces, Canis rushes in with his men and tearing Syrius's sword from his hands, kills the latter with it. He then tells Mary that he believes that Christ had led him to her and that he now believes in Him. Protected by the soldiers, he leads Mary away. The story ends with a short vision of the hanging of Judas, and the progress of Canis and Mary up the hill of Calvarv, with the three crosses showing on the top of the hills.

She finds them in the graveyard. As she walks through the streets the villagers shun her. The news is rapidly passed that the Magdalen has returned. The gray beards are indignant that she should blast the fair name of their town by her presence there. The citizens' committee calls upon the new minister and instructs him to order the woman out of town. The minister carries his message, but the woman tells him it is her house and she shall stay there. The young minister is struck with the woman and the sincerity of her repentance. He remonstrates with the gossips. He returns to the woman and comforts her. In the meantime, the citizens have gathered to trumpet her out of their village. Hearing some approaching, the minister, fearing to arouse further scandal, steps into her house. The woman bravely goes out to meet her assailants, and they begin to jeer at her and stone her, until the minister defends her. The unoffending half-witted fellow is hit with a brick and killed. And there is a suggestion of a future bond of sympathy between the Magdalen and the minister.
