The Ornament of the World (PBS 2019)

This movie tells a story from the past that’s especially timely today:  the story of a remarkable time in history when Muslims, Christians and Jews forged a common cultural identity that frequently transcended their religious differences.  It retraces an 800-year period in medieval Spain when Muslims, Christians and Jews coexisted in a manner that led to the creation of great works of art, architecture, literature and music.  Directed by Michael Schwarz.
