2004126 min6.3 / 10

A grounded, historically-inflected war epic that strips the Arthurian legend of fantasy to present it as a brutal 5th-century military struggle for survival and honor.

The story of the Arthurian legend, based on the 'Sarmatian hypothesis' which contends that the legend has a historical nucleus in the Sarmatian heavy cavalry troops stationed in Britain, and that the Roman-British military commander, Lucius Artorius Castus is the historical person behind the legend.
