I've only seen the first three episodes so far.
The film series is an attempt to show the struggle of a people against a conquering enemy.
The period when the Turkish Empire tried to conquer the Kingdom of Hungary.
The action takes place from the late 1420s to 1456, when a Hungarian nobleman, János Hunyadi, takes up arms against the Turkish armies besieging the southern border of the country.
He defends not only his own land but the whole country at a time when the country is in turmoil.
The film follows the life of this man.
I am not a film expert, I cannot tell you about the direction, lighting, cinematography, etc.
But I would recommend it to anyone who loves history and wants to learn about the medieval history of Central Europe, and especially of Hungary.
What makes the film special is that the characters in the series speak in their own anglophone languages, Hungarian, Serbian, Turkish, German, etc., giving a sense of the multilingual world that characterised this part of Europe at the time.
