Young Ben-Hur and Messala were the best of friends. They loved to race chariots. One day, Messala had to leave Jerusalem and his Jewish friend, to study in Rome and become a Roman officer. When Messala came back, the boyhood friends were now men, but friends no longer.
Messala falsely imprisoned Ben-Hur's family and sent him to the galleys. But Ben-Hur survived. And he returned, seeking his family – and Messala.
The former friends squared off for one last, desperate chariot race. What happened next, and what became of them at the hands of a magnificent Stranger, makes Ben-Hur: A Race to Glory one of the most thrilling inspiring adventures ever.
"These well-written, beautifully animated tales well deserve our award, and are some of the best we have ever seen." — Elayne Blythe, Founder/President, Film Advisory Board, Inc.
