An electrifying tale of rage and resistance that gives voice to the tragic and remarkable story of a young Roman noblewoman, Beatrice Cenci
Rome, 1599.
A young noblewoman is reduced to killing her father to escape his cruel treatment. By the time she is executed, she will have captured the hearts and sympathy of all Rome...
This is the true and tragic tale of Beatrice Cenci.
History has sold her short. She is no doe-eyed victim of her father's brutality, nor the cunning murderer who plotted her father's 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.
And she will stand tall in the face of the violence of men, no matter the cost.
