Der silberne Kelch (1954)
Der griechische Sklave und Bildhauer Basilius soll für den Apostel Lukas und Joseph von Arimathea den Kelch des letzten Abendmahls mit Silber verkleiden. Während ihn sein Auftrag über Jerusalem nach Rom führt, trifft er seine Jugendliebe Helena wieder, die mittlerweile die Geliebte des machtgierigen Zauberers Simon geworden ist. Basilius' Liebe zu Helena flammt wieder auf, weshalb er lange Zeit die Zuneigung, die ihm die junge Christin Debora entgegenbringt, nicht zu würdigen weiß.
