Story
What Nazi Germany did to the Jews did not happen overnight. The foundation for it was built in German culture over the centuries, arguably started by the writings and deeds of perhaps the most influential reformer of the millennium, Martin Luther. This screenplay is a journey through his life to give us insights of how a movement, no matter how pure in its intention, could go terribly wrong.

Story
England 1727. Tom Hawkins will lieber verdammt sein, als Landpfarrer zu werden wie sein Vater. Er liebt die Frauen, das Bier und das Glücksspiel - und landet eines Nachts im berüchtigten Londoner Schuldgefängnis "The Marshalsea". Schnell erkennt Tom, dass in diesem "Teufelsloch" nur überlebt, wer sich nützlich machen kann: Er verdingt sich als Ermittler in einem hinterlistigen Gefängnismord - eine Idee, an der sein düsterer Zellengenosse Fleet sogleich Gefallen findet. Doch Tom ist auf der Hut, gilt Fleet doch selbst bei den abgebrühtesten Bütteln des Marshalsea als Ausgeburt der Hölle.

Story
King Henry V's beautiful widow, Catherine, is determined to marry Owen Tudor, a Welsh gentleman-at-arms. But her life decisions are not her own, overshadowed as she is by more powerful men who are closer to the Throne. The Duke of Bedford would marry her off to a foreign prince, Henry Beaufort would give his allegiance in exchange for a Cardinal's hat, and the handsome Duke of Gloucester, brother of the dead king, openly desires her. Added to that, her son, the King, is a weak child. She must use all her wits and courage if she is to forge a new life for herself.

Story
È l'anno del signore 1550 L'Europa è ancora percorsa da venti di guerra. Il lungo scontro tra Spagna e Francia, durato decenni, causando tante morti e tanta distruzione, senza risparmiare nemmeno Roma, messa a ferro e fuoco dai lanzichenecchi, non si è ancora concluso. Il luteranesimo e le altre confessioni protestanti infiammano gli animi del Nord Europa e dell'Inghilterra. E la minaccia dei turchi, che hanno già conquistato tutto l'Oriente e raso al suolo quel che restava dell'impero bizantino, è più viva che mai.

At the heart of this gripping tale is Orazio Bordoni, the wayward son of a construction magnate, living a reckless life like that of his artistic hero Caravaggio. He finds himself befriended by Nicolo Giotto, the devoted son of a powerful Sicilian mafia clan, who wants to uphold the honor of his family. As the dark underbelly of the art world and the Vatican expose their true character, Orazio finds himself in a world where his loyalty is tested, honor is at stake, and the boundaries between life and art blur.

Story
A Roma il paesaggio è mutato per sempre. Sulla città svetta l’immenso tamburo della più grande cupola della cristianità, un monumentale “cielo di pietra”, opera di Michelangelo e della sua profonda devozione religiosa. Ma in basso, per le vie della città, abusi e violenze non sembrano destinati a placarsi. Il cardinal Morone, accusato ingiustamente di eresia, è stato rinchiuso nelle prigioni di Castel Sant’Angelo e i due viziosi nipoti di papa Paolo IV, Carlo e Giovanni Carafa, continuano a sfogare le loro pulsioni in un crescendo di depravazione e crudeltà.

Story
In 1660, Amsterdam is the trading and map-printing capital of the world. Anneke van Brug is one of the colorists paid to enhance black-and-white maps for a growing number of collectors. Her artistic talent brings her to the attention of the Blaeu printing house, and she begins to color for a rich merchant, Willem de Groot. But Anneke is not content to simply embellish the work of others; she longs to create maps of her own. Cartography, however, is the domain of men - so it is in secret that she borrows the notes her father made on a trip to Africa in 1642 and sets about designing a new map.

La dura vita di bottegai, prostitute, schiavi ed ebrei del ghetto contrasta con l'abbagliante ricchezza della città lagunare, meta di mercanti provenienti da ogni parte del mondo per fare fortuna. Ma alla prosperità, si sa, si accompagna spesso la corruzione. In un'epoca in cui l'inganno, la malizia e la perversione prosperano al pari dell'arte e della filosofia, i lupi hanno vita facile. Sono individui spregiudicati, che si muovono famelici, fiutando le migliori opportunità per acquisire sempre più potere, coinvolgendo ignare pedine nelle loro oscure trame.

Milano, 1496. Leonardo da Vinci ha atteso con ansia quel primo incontro con frate Luca Pacioli, allievo di Piero della Francesca e illustre matematico. Entrato nella cella del frate nel monastero che lo ospita, nell'attesa che questi arrivi, Leonardo si sofferma su un dipinto che ritrae lo studioso. Un insieme di allegorie e di richiami alla geometria euclidea che lo colpisce infinitamente: di certo è stato il frate a scegliere ogni dettaglio.

But when Borgia asks Machiavelli to write his life story, their bond gains complexity and nuance: ultimately, they both aspire to everlasting fame and to achieve it, they need each other, for the one's sword can only rule in eternity via the pen of the other.
