Saluete omnes!<br>
A "Passion/crucifixion" story by the point of view of a legionary/auxiliary (not a centurion) would be a very original subject and, involving a good group of reenactors, very cheap to produce too...<br>
Just to begin, it could be enough to shot a short documentary to show the everyday life of a roman soldier and to explain the differences between the movies and the reality.<br>
<br>
Another dream could be the story of a contubernium along the Rhine limes after the Clades Variana: among them there is a legionary, the son of the centurio Marcus Celius (the famous one of the gravestone), looking for the father and for the eagles captured...OK, OK, I'm dreaming<br>
<br>
Titus, do you think we can really do anything about?<br>
Valete.<br>
Flavius <p>---------<br>
Fecisti patriam diversis gentibus unam;<br>
profuit iniustis te dominante capi;<br>
dumque offers victis proprii consortia iuris,<br>
Urbem fecisti, quod prius orbis erat.<br>
