New York Times best-selling author Dan Burstein and Academy Award nominated documentary filmmaker Jonathan Stack have created a fascinating and provocative feature-length documentary based on Burstein's best selling book, the Secrets of the Code. Narrated by Academy Award-winning actress Susan Sarandon, the film takes viewers on a journey at once sacred and profane, wrestling with the complex historical and religious issues at the heart of the novel, The Da Vinci Code, while delving into universal issues about the nature of belief, faith, spirituality, and religion.  Among the diverse and informed authorities we encounter are:  Rabbi Irwin Kula, expert on the Kabala and the Jewish mystical tradition; Elaine Pagels, Princeton professor and author of The Gnostic Gospels;  Bart Ehrman, leading academic focused on lost scriptures and gospels; John Allen, Vatican expert and author of the most extensively researched book about Opus Dei, and Neil deGrasse Tyson, a leading astrophysicist.

The Da Vinci Code is now part of the culture. It raises fundamental and haunting questions about truth and reality, and the meaning of belief itself. Secrets of the Code takes it as gospel, so to speak, that people yearn to make sense of their lives and of existence in general. How they do this may differ from individual to individual, but ultimately anyone who seeks meaning in life is engaged on a spiritual quest. Secrets of the Code offers a memorable stop on that journey.    

Secrets of the Code is available in Wal-Mart, Blockbuster, Barnes and Noble and on amazon. It is available in stores and online at all of these outlets.
