Overview
Sumido en una profunda crisis artística y espiritual, el genio del Renacimiento concebirá la versión final de la tumba de Julio II de una forma que podría condenarlo a la hoguera.
Roma, otoño de 1542. Miguel Ángel se encuentra en el punto de mira de la Inquisición. Vive una profunda crisis religiosa y su amistad con Vittoria Colonna, la marquesa de Pescara, no ha pasado desapercibida. El jefe del Santo Oficio, el cardenal Gian Pietro Carafa, ha ordenado seguir a la dama para identificar el lugar donde se reúne la secta de los Espirituales, encabezada por Reginald Pole, que aboga por el retorno a la pureza evangélica en una ciudad donde la corrupción campa a sus anchas. Roma, que se ha convertido en una ciudad devorada por el vicio, será el cruel teatro en el que se crucen las vidas de Malasorte, la joven ladronzuela que ha recibido el encargo de espiar a los Espirituales, de Vittorio Corsini, el capitán de los esbirros de la ciudad, de Vittoria Colonna y del mismo Miguel Angel Buonarroti, el artista más genial de su tiempo.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
An unreleased Michelangelo by the author of the great series The Medici.
In a state of artistic and spiritual crisis, the genius of the Renaissance will conceive the final version of the tomb of Julius II in a way that could condemn him to the stake.
Rome, Autumn of 1542. Michelangelo finds himself in the eyes of the Inquisition. He is experiencing a deep religious crisis, and his friendship with Vittoria Colonna, the Marquise of Pescara, has not gone unnoticed. The head of the Holy Office, Cardinal Gian Pietro Carafa, has ordered Lady Colonna be followed to identify the location where The Spirituals meet. The cult leader, Reginald Pole, advocates for the return to evangelical purity in a city where corruption runs free. Rome, now a city devoured by vice, will be the cruel theater in which the lives of Malasorte (the young thief who has been commissioned to spy on The Spirituals), Vittorio Corsini (captain of the city’s henchmen), Vittoria Colonna, and Michelangelo himself (the greatest artist of this time) will come across.
