It's Christmas of 1183, and Henry II (Patrick Stewart) must find a successor to his throne. He favors his youngest son John, while his wife, Eleanor, believes that their eldest son, Richard the Lionhearted, would make a better king. While their disagreement plunges the family into a deceitful war of wills, it becomes apparent that neither of their three conniving boys are qualified for the job. (official distributor synopsis)
