About

74 B.C. Somewhere in the Roman Empire, Spartacus, a young officer, is condemned to be a slave because he hit a superior. Brought back to Roma in a gladiators' school, he escapes and stirs up all the slaves in a revolt against the Roman Empire.

Can a disgraced officer turn a brutal gladiatorial training camp into the spark for a massive empire-wide revolution? This swashbuckling epic trades political nuance for heavy-hitting action and the desperate struggle of those bound in chains.
