Rise of the Raven
Created by Robert Dornhelm, Robert Lantos
An epic historical drama about a 15th-century Hungarian military hero's unlikely victory against Ottoman conquest, balancing intimate character study with large-scale war and geopolitical stakes.
The story of János Hunyadi is the epic tale of a hero born into modest circumstances, who, in 1456, with relentless determination and against all odds, vanquished the much larger Ottoman army, halting its drive to conquer the Vatican and overrun Western Europe. In so doing, Hunyadi not only shaped the history of Hungary, but that of all Europe.
