Sinners

A young noblewoman accused of murder, awaits execution. Imprisoned in the Corte Savella, she has captured the hearts and sympathy of all Rome.

This is the true and tragic tale of Beatrice Cenci. Murder most foul or vengeance most just? Helpless victim or resolute heroine?

Rome, 1599.

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 castles keeper. Soon the love that grows between them will transform Beatrices fortunes, for better and for worse.

History has sold her short. She is no doe-eyed victim of her fathers brutality, nor the cunning murderer who plotted her fathers 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.
