설명
In Saxony, a small pocket of pagan rebels hold out as Charlemagne seeks to expand his sprawling empire, and crush the old religion for good.
A final war looms between Charlemagne’s vast army and the Saxon’s mad or noble few, led by King Widukind.
At his orders, warrior leaders drag a ragged band of the frail and the young, into a battle that cannot be dressed up as noble or fair.
Private feuds and fears make enemies of friends, cruelty and revenge muddies everything, and King Widukind must confront the philosophy that threatens his own with extinction.
This is the true story of Charlemagne’s most infamous battle, told through those who fought him. The awful facts relayed through human stories, sometimes cowardly and sometimes strange, as scores are settled once and for all, and the Saxons must confront the end of times.
