In 451 Attila the Hun set off on a war of total destruction that could have spelt the end of much of what has since become European heritage. He swept through Germany and France, and a year later was poised to invade Italy.
This film explores the major events that turned the tide on Attila when he was on the brink of victory over the most powerful countries in Western Europe, from his surprise settlement with the fledgling Pope, to his sudden death from an apparent nosebleed in bed with his new wife.
