Los rebeldes de Roma

Sicily, 265 B.C. C. In the shadow of Mount Etna, the slaves rebel. As the leaders of the revolt declare Sicily the new land of freedom, men and women are massacred, the island's towns and villages looted and burned. When a ship is wrecked off the western coast, only two survivors manage to escape the fury of the rebels. A veteran Roman soldier known for his friendship with the emperor and sporting the equestrian ring on his hand, Ballista has always found a way to face danger and adversity. However, he is now accompanied by his son Marco, whom he barely knows, still very young and inexperienced. Forced to fight together, the two must fight their way across a devastated Sicily, in a race against time to save the rest of the family and put an end to the revolt before the entire island burns in the fires of war.
