- Synopsis:
1498. Rome, the powerhouse of the renaissance is governed by the tyrannical Cesare Borgia, a man who has no scruples when it comes to furthering his political ambitions. To secure an alliance with Naples, he has arranged that his sister Lucrece shall marry Alphonse, the Duke of Aragon. On the eve of her wedding, Lucrece secretly joins a street carnival where she meets and falls instantly in love with a stranger-who later turns out to be her intended husband. It is not long before Alphonse realises the extent of Cesare's cruelty and thirst for power. Lucrece reveals how her brother has used her in the past for his political ends. When the Duke of Aragon is of no further use to Cesare, he surely must meet the same fate as his predecessors.... - Actors:
