The most in-depth film ever made about Mithra. Mithra was a God once worshiped from Rome all the way to India. He was responsible for founding two of the greatest civilizations in human history. This documentary traces Mithra's origins from a sacred oath called Hoitos to his birthplace at Srubnaya. In doing so, we also chronicle the birth of the Iranian peoples.
