Search for the Holy Grail

Documentary examining the possible whereabouts of the ancient Christian relic, reputed to be the cup that Jesus drank from at the Last Supper and that received His blood at the Crucifixion. In 2014, historian Margarita Torres discovered two Arabic parchments recording the journey of Christ's cup from Jerusalem to Spain in 1055. One parchment states that the cup arrived in Spain with a piece missing. The onyx cup in Leon's San Isidora basilica matches this description. In Leon, Torres finds further evidence that this may be the Holy Grail in a medieval painting of the Supper
