A Roman invasion of Celtic lands hangs on the knife's edge of success as the chieftain Ambiorix (REED CLARE) wages war against the Roman general Eydis. A deadly battlefield blow costs Ambiorix the life of his son, Conall, resulting in the unceasing deterioration of his soul and sanity. In his dying moments he is haunted and fractured as he relives the epic battle with his former adversary and its ignoble acts of brutal savagery and deception. The truth of which may hold the key to Ambiorix's salvation. It is in the torment of his conscience that this film explores and serves as a political and moral allegory for our present day quagmires and commitment to wars with no clear end or resolution. This is a story of morality and a man's struggle for truth and atonement. Written by
