NEHEMIAH

Nehemiah is a seven-episode miniseries based on the book of the same name from the Bible. The plot is a spin-off of the series The Queen of Persia. The story follows Nehemiah, a young Jew and eunuch in the palace of Susa, who feels fulfilled in his role as cupbearer to his friend, King Artaxerxes. Despite having to be away from the people he loves most and who have been his companions and allies for so long, Nehemiah accepted that this separation was essential for each to be able to carry out God's plans in their lives and thus achieve their dreams. The only stumbling block at the moment is Artaxerxes. If only he could help his friend free himself from the ghosts of the past. However, being honest with himself, he also clings to a fragment of his story: the hope of one day being able to set foot in and see Jerusalem. His consolation is that at least his friends are living this dream for him. It was then, on a seemingly peaceful night, that Nehemiah was surprised by grave news that shook his entire structure and called into question all his certainties up to that point. The only certainty he has now is that the city he loves so much was destroyed and burned to the ground, leaving several men dead, entire families destroyed, and as if to make matters worse, his contacts in Judah have disappeared. But why was this news given to him in particular? What kept him tied to this responsibility in front of the palace? What could he do to protect his compatriots? How could he take on this burden? It is a responsibility that does not even correspond to him and a task that everyone considers impossible. This is how Nehemiah finds himself at the most crucial moment of his life. Combining faith and courage, Nehemiah makes a decision that could change his destiny forever or lead him to total ruin.
