In the tumultuous world of 15th-century Italy, Count Antonio, a man of noble birth, finds himself at odds with the corrupt and oppressive society that surrounds him.

As Antonio's rebellion gains momentum, he faces the challenges of maintaining his ideals in a world driven by violence and betrayal.
