Films and documentaries about the Protestant Reformation can greatly aid your high school World History students in understanding this pivotal historical period. Visual media brings to life the complex religious, political, and cultural changes that reshaped Europe in the 16th century and influenced later developments in the United States, such as religious freedom and democratic ideals.

Documentaries like Martin Luther: The Idea That Changed the World provide a detailed, dramatized account of Luther's 95 Theses, his defiance of the Catholic Church, and the resulting religious upheaval. These films often include expert commentary, historical reenactments, and period visuals that help clarify theological concepts and contextualize the era's conflicts.

Other documentaries, such as PBS's Empires: Martin Luther, explore the broader impact of the Reformation on European society, including the rise of Protestant denominations and the Catholic Counter-Reformation.

By watching these films, your students can better grasp the motivations behind reform, the risks reformers faced, and the Reformation's long-term effects on Western civilization. These resources support diverse learning styles, encourage class discussion, and deepen critical thinking about religious and political change, making history more relatable and engaging for your pupils.
