Julius Caesar - in the prime of his life, at the height of his powers. But behind the myth lies a man beset with contradictions. Happily married, heis also the lover of Cleopatra. A great general, he seeks to end Rome's endless wars. Conscious of his own power, and contemptuous of lesser men, he is determined not be crowned emperor.But Caesar is a man whose greatness attracts envy and jealousy to a dangerous degree; as political intrigues which surround him intensify, his destruction becomes inevitable.
