Luther Film did an excellent job of giving an accurate picture of the situation of events occurring in what is known to be the Protestant Reformation beginning in Germany. Luther's excommunication from the Catholic Church. The people of Wittenberg begin to destroy the Church and cause riots, causing horrible suffering to Luther, who begins to intervene disguised as a knight. The film ends with the death of Pope Leo The princes of Germany spoke the truth about Luther's ninety-five theses and the Protestant reformation of Catholic doctrine arose to become what is called Protestant doctrine.
