What is Ludus Danielis? A beautiful medieval manuscript, an ancient ritual, a collection of songs and dance-tunes, a liturgical play, high drama, festive foolery, New Year games, a medieval opera, emotional catharsis, political commentary, a sideways view of the moral high-ground? The short answer is “Yes“. This film explores the academic questions and celebrates the artistic energy surrounding one of the great treasures of medieval culture, the circa-1200 Play of Daniel.
