In an era when peace and faith are threatened by corruption and hypocrisy within the church, a fervent Augustinian monk sets out to carry out a reform that will forever change the course of Christianity. As he delves into the sacred texts and the quest for truth, he finds himself in an internal conflict between his devotion and his growing disillusionment with the practices of the Catholic Church. Realizing that forgiveness and salvation should not be sold as commodities, he makes a bold decision that places him at the center of controversy.
With a charismatic and passionate character, he fights against ecclesiastical authority, challenging not only centuries-old traditions but also the system that fuels the oppression of souls. The film portrays his difficult journey through confrontations with powerful clerics, his excommunication, and the growing influence he exerts over the people. Despite the threats and persecution, his unwavering determination to spread his ideas of faith and justice makes him a symbol of resistance.
Through intense confrontations and moments of deep reflection, the story leads us to understand not only the protagonist's personal struggle but also the repercussions of his actions in a crisis-ridden Europe. With a dramatic and moving approach, this work invites us to explore the true meaning of freedom of conscience and the pursuit of spiritual knowledge.
