In 93 AD, Loukas, the son of a wealthy Christian trader, is entrusted with a scroll to read in the seven churches of Asia Minor, starting with Ephesus. But the scroll sparks rebellion wherever he goes and the Roman authorities attempt to track him down. All Loukas wants to do is complete his mission and get back to Ephesus and his fiancee, Iounia. In 2005 AD, Dima and Natasha, a young Russian couple from St. Petersburg, come across a stone box with a scroll inside, found in Ephesus by Dima's great-great-grandfather. The scroll is a complete - and early - copy of the book of Revelation. How did this scroll come to be found in Russia? And has it come to light at this very time for a reason?"
