Step into the tumultuous world of 18th century France and meet the characters whose fates will collide and forever change the course of history: Louis XVI, the weak-willed King; his reviled wife Marie Antoinette; the bloodthirsty journalist, Jean-Paul Marat; and the man who would ultimately be consumed by the fires of his own revolution Maximilien Robespierre. Shot on location in France and Romania, this sumptuous, two-hour film takes viewers from the gilded courts of Versailles to the chaotic streets of Paris where, in the shadow of the guillotine, a new republic will be born in blood the blood of the French Revolution.
