Under the reign of the Bavarian prince and the newly founded Greek State's first monarch, King Othon--and as Greece is struggling to find its feet in an ever-changing world right after the victorious revolution against the tyrannical Ottoman Empire on March 25, 1821--yet another challenge awaits. In the face of a preposterous accusation and a cruel fate, the noble warlords and heroes of the blood-soaked cause of liberty, and Dimitrios Plapoutas, find themselves charged with treason, tried by a five-member jury presided by the prominent political thinker and intellectual, Athanasios-Anastasios Polizoidis. But, in 1834, against the backdrop of political intrigue, not even him and the idealistic historian, Georgios Tertsetis, could avert a predetermined verdict in an unfair show-trial that shook an entire nation.
