Drama
The death of a wealthy patriarch in 1885 sets off an interfamily power struggle. Son Ferdinando buys out his other relatives in order to gain full control over the dead man's property.

VIBE
A simmering, operatic drama of familial ambition and forbidden desire. Expect intense stares, hushed arguments, and a palpable sense of simmering tension as fortunes and hearts are gambled. It feels like a grand, tragic opera unfolding in opulent halls.
