Hunyadi’s bravery and military prowess earned him the nickname ‘The White Knight of Christendom.’ The show explores Hunyadi’s life, plagued by scandal, political power plays and conspiracies between noble families from Warsaw, Rome, Belgrade and Vienna. His strongest allies are the women in his life including his life partner Elizabeth Szilagyi.
