我的名字是乔

　　公元4世纪，罗马帝国日渐衰落，在亚历山大港，多神教的智者希帕提娅（蕾切尔·薇姿 Rachel Weisz 饰）为弟子们授课。奥利斯蒂斯（奥斯卡·伊撒克 Oscar Isaac 饰）对她频频示爱，甚至在剧院大胆表白；奴隶达乌斯（麦克思·明格拉 Max Minghella 饰）也对她颇有好感，但因身份卑微无法启口。与此同时，基督教徒宣扬的自由，让达乌斯的信仰开始动摇，此举令他遭受鞭刑，是希帕提娅为他疗伤，抚慰了他的心灵。时局动荡，在多神教的挑动下发生暴乱，基督教转而取得优势，双方在亚历山大图书馆对峙。后来，接到了罗马统治者的号令，让多神教撤出图书馆，允许基督教徒进入，于是一场残酷的浩劫开始了……
　　本片为第62届戛纳电影节的非竞赛展映片，取景地为马耳他的里卡所里堡，这里曾是《角斗士》和《特洛伊》拍摄地。希帕提娅原定由妮可·基德曼出演，但因其在《黄金罗盘》中饰演反派，遭到基督教徒反感，因此换角。

　　Within the walls of the Grave, the orphanage where Nica grew up, a legend has always been told: that of the maker of tears, a mysterious craftsman, guilty of crafting all the fears and anxieties that inhabit the hearts of men. But at seventeen years old, the time has come for Nica to leave fairy tales behind. Her biggest dream is about to come true. Mr and Mrs Milligan have started the adoption process and are ready to give her the family she has always wanted. In her new home, however, Nica is not alone. Along with her, Rigel, a restless and mysterious orphan, the last person in the world Nica would want as an adoptive brother, is also taken from the Grave. Rigel is intelligent, smart, plays the piano like an enchanting demon and has a beauty that can enchant, but his angelic appearance conceals a dark nature. Even though Nica and Rigel are united by a common past of pain and hardship, living together seems impossible, but kindness and anger are two different ways of fighting pain to stay alive and to conceal the emotions that devastate their hearts, becoming for each other that tears-maker of legend. To the maker of tears you cannot lie: and they will have to find the courage to accept that desperate force that attract them towards each other called love.
