    A historical tale of blood, honour and revenge.

    Lazar loves his homeland. When the Romans invade, he has no choice but to fight for his country.

    Heavily outnumbered, Lazar and the rest of the Macedonians are quickly defeated. Those left alive are taken as slaves.

    Lazar is forced to perform as a gladiator in the Ancona arena and his skill with a sword quickly makes him famous. But Lazar doesn’t want to fight in the arena for the rest of his life. Will he ever have a chance to escape?
