"The Physician (Der Medicus) Trailer" Topic

Sounds interesting.
"German epic movie. Nine-year-old Rob Cole felt the life force slipping from his mother's hand he could not foresee that this terrifying awareness of impending death was a gift that would lead him from the familiar life of 11th-century London to small villages throughout England and finally to the medical school at Ispahan. Though apprenticed to an itinerant barber surgeon, it is the dazzling surgery of a Jewish physician trained by the legendary Persian physician Avicenna that inspires him to accept his gift and to commit his life to healing by studying at Avicenna's school. Despite the ban on Christian
students, Rob goes there, disguising himself as a Jew to gain admission. The film is based on Noah Gordon's adventurous and inspiring bestselling novel of a quest for medical knowledge pursued in a violent world full of superstition and prejudice."

The film is in post production, so no release date yet.
Looks great and will keep this noted.

Cheers,

The book is very good. In fact, there are 2 or 3 books following the characters. One book chronicles Rob Coles descendants in the frontier of early America.
