An epic historical war drama centered on a pagan warrior's struggle against religious conquest and foreign invasion, balancing martial spectacle with spiritual conflict.

In the year of 754 AD, during a time of epic battles and bloodshed, the legend of the pagan warrior king, Rebad, is born, but so is a new weapon against his people: Christianity. Redbad must ultimately unite a Viking army powerful enough to defeat the seemingly invincible Franks.
