The life and work of one of the great masters of Italian cinema, Sergio Leone (1929-89); a rich and fascinating portrait through unpublished testimonies of collaborators, actors, directors and critics who reconstruct every aspect of his creative activity.
The silent cinema had already created colossal movies based on ancient civilizations, but it is in the 1950s when peplums reach their apogee in Hollywood. Then, peplums take root at Cinecittà studios, in Rome, where cheap cinema is produced with bodybuilders as heroes. The genre decays in the late 1960s, but rises again decades later, when a modern classic is released in 2000.

A história do cerco à Tróia, sob o ponto de vista de Enéas, o filme é repleto de personagens fascinantes. Enéas, segundo a interpretação do poeta Virgílio, é o mais sábio dos troianos e, que depois de dez anos de guerra, se tornou o defensor principal de se encontrar um fim para ela. A sabedoria e nobreza dele o levaram a ganhar um lugar à mesa com Rei Príamo e outros motivos, o colocaram em conflito com o ciumento Paris e a sua Helena. Abrindo com a morte de Heitor por Aquiles, o filme é recheado de relações pessoais complexas e vaidades mitológicas. John D. Barrymore interpreta Ulisses, um guerreiro inteligente, cínico e corajoso entre os gregos. A interpretação de Reeves traz nobreza a Enéas, demonstradas nas suas habilidades e seu físico. Fiel a história e fantástico!
