An account of the life of the Italian painter Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-1653), the first female artist to get international acclaim, recognized as a modern icon, due to her personality and her unyielding defense of her professional integrity.

The Crusades reign supreme. Joachim's habit has become like a second skin. Shrouded in the darkness of the world, his life intertwines with dreamlike experiences and mystical visions. A river of oil unfolds before his eyes. The ascetic receives a divine revelation—prophecies and visions that only his heart can unveil. His final endeavor is humanity's greatest challenge: overcoming the apocalypse. A journey through hope, life beyond life, the values of existence—the search for the divine within every living being—the power of love.
