Synopsis

Ancient Rome, during the time of Emperor Nero. Vinicius, a young patrician, falls in love with the beautiful Lygia, the daughter of a Barbarian commander who was killed in battle, and wants her for his concubine. For Lygia, a Christian, being a pagan's concubine is a severe sin and disgrace. However, when Vinicius is wounded, Lygia cares for him, and starts to reciprocate his feelings. Vinicius, in return, becomes interested in Christian learning and asks Apostle Peter to teach him. In the meantime, Emperor Nero accuses Christians of having started a great fire in Rome. He encourages the imprisonment, torture and murder of his Christian subjects.

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Kirpianuscus first , as the first Polish adaptation of the novel. than, for the images who defines a lost world in its different aspects. for acting. and for the courage to propose a new version, in contemporary rules, of a great book. sure, it is not a masterpiece. but it has each virtue for impress. costumes and fight and love story and an interesting Nero or a Petronius who preserves the spirit of the book. it is an ambitious show and that detail is the key for understand it. many details are far to be perfect. after other adaptations, it is not surprising to be skeptical about few aspects. but it is a good film. the desire of realistic scenes could be its most important part.
deniolyu In my personal opinion this movie is one of the best, if not the best, film's ever made. The story, acting, costumes, film set is great, a true masterpiece work of art, better yet, authentic and factual. Factual was the attack on Christians by the evil...I have voted 10/10 for this movie because not only did I enjoy it, it reminded me of Christian history, once you see it, you'll understand.If you like movies like the brilliant Braveheart movie, Apocalypot, Potop, Gwiazda, Ogniem i Mieczem you are going to love this one too.A true masterpiece that Hollywood will never produce, because fact the facts; Hollywood never produced anything worthwhile of our precious time, just pure filthy, stinky garbage.
denis888 Since I am both Christian and Polish (although with much of the Russian blood), I deeply enjoyed this excellent film. But, you really don't have to be a Pole or a believer to like this work of art. Mr. Kawalerowicz did a marvelous job shooting another masterpiece of Henryk Sienkiewicz. The performance of Boguslaw Linda is as usual impeccable, and the scenes of the Christian martyrdom are simply blood-freezing. You immediately feel deep sorrow when seeing those bloody killings. The bright costumes, excellent actors' work and great plot make this film a must see for all who love to learn more about the history of both Roman Empire and Early Church.
Citizen Kion i'd be proud of this movie but i can't. it's rubbish. except of some actors' playing this film is from some kind of another film dimension.boring, ghastly filming and without even one positive mark. keep away of such movies if you want to take care of yourself. i don't like "gladiator" but it's ingenious comparing with the polish "movie". greetings.
