‘A young noblewoman accused of murder, awaits execution. Imprisoned in the Corte Savella, she has captured the hearts and sympathy of all Rome. . .<\/p>\n
This is the true and tragic tale of Beatrice Cenci.<\/p>\n
Murder most foul or vengeance most just?<\/p>\n
Helpless victim or resolute heroine?<\/p>\n
Rome, 1599.<\/p>\n
Beatrice yearns to escape the clutches of her abusive father and determined to find a way back to Rome, enlists the help of Olimpio, the castle\u2019s keeper. Soon the love that grows between them will transform Beatrice\u2019s fortunes, for better and for worse. . .<\/p>\n
History has sold her short. She is no doe-eyed victim of her father\u2019s brutality, nor the cunning murderer who plotted her father\u2019s demise. No, this Beatrice – a woman pregnant by her lover, incarcerated in a remote castle by her father, and brim-full of white-hot rage – is both innocent and guilty, saint and sinner.<\/p>\n
And she will stand tall in the face of the violence of men, no matter the cost.<\/p>\n
