It recreates the life of the orator Marcus Tullius Cicero and his political milieu, with the intrigues, passions and crimes that surrounded his career. It is the result of nine years of work and research and combines the reconstruction of ancient Rome with the conflicts that marked his era: religion, power and war. The portrait shows an analytical man, ahead of his time, who reaped loyalties and enmities.
