A lighthearted medieval romp following a ragtag band of rogues on a picaresque quest across Italy, driven by comedy and camaraderie rather than stakes or introspection.

A group of rogues steal a scroll granting its bearer the property of the land of Aurocastro in Apulia, a province in the south of Italy. They elect a shaggy knight, Brancaleone from Norcia, as their leader, and decide to get possession of this supposedly wealthy land. Many adventures will occurr during the journey.
