Synopsis:
Towards the end of the eleventh century,
Pope Urban II announces a crusade against the Saracens, who have
occupied the holy city of Jerusalem. Three young friends # Richard,
Peter and Andrew # set off to join the crusading army. The three
friends come from very different backgrounds: Andrew is a shepherd;
Peter is a poor bell founder, and the illegitimate son of a Christian
woman and a Saracen man; and Richard is the deeply religious son of
Baron William of Aurocastro, who was murdered by his rival brother
Corrado. The violent methods used by the crusaders soon cause the
three friends to fall out with each other, and after a bloody attack
on a Jewish monastery, they go their separate ways: Andrew remains
with the crusaders, while Peter and Richard accompany the attractive
Jewess Rachel # whose teacher, a rabbi, was killed in the raid # to
Jerusalem. Andrew is very reluctant to see Rachel go, having # like
Peter # fallen in love with her at first sight. In Jerusalem the
situation is very tense: the Saracen governor is having the Christians
expelled from the city, out of fear of crusader spies. Peter, Richard
and Rachel manage to trick their way into the city, but shortly
afterwards Richard is arrested. When the crusaders, with Andrew at
their head, arrive at the gates of Jerusalem, the former friends now
face each other as enemies # because to save Richard, Peter has joined
the side of the Saracens. The city cannot withstand the onslaught of
the crusaders and their fierce fighting spirit, and soon falls into
Christian hands. Peter prepares an escape route for himself and
Richard. Rachel has decided to stay with Andrew, however, who has also
confessed his love to her. Peter and Richard return to their homeland.
Richard, already seriously ill, dies on arrival. Peter marries his
childhood sweetheart Maria and works as a bell founder again. Years
later he meets Rachel and Andrew again. Andrew is now the feudal baron
of Aurocastro. He has built an enormous cathedral # and wants Peter to
make the bells for it.... |
