视频简介

Katherine of Alexandria, brought up as a nomad and living in the desert, was aged just 11 when Emperor Maxentius saw her whilst out on patrol. Consumed by her beauty, impudence and uncanny talent for languages, he abducted the child, killing her family. The slaughter was witnessed by her young friend, Constantine, who would later become Emperor of the Western Roman Empire. He never lost hope of finding Katherine. As a young woman, Katherine refused to submit to Maxentius' offers of marriage and she continually denounced his brutal enforcement of pagan religion upon the masses. Still obsessed with her beauty, Maxentius brought Katherine before 50 of Rome's finest scholars in an open court in Alexandria, where she eloquently demolished their arguments. When Constantine learned of Katherine's whereabouts and imprisonment at the hands of Maxentius, he led his army from York in a desperate bid to save her.。这部引人入胜的系列纪录片揭示了战争的真实代价。战争有的发生在国内，也有的发生在千里之外；有的在空中作战，也有的在地下战壕作战；有时可能几个月就结束，也有时可能持续数年——但战争永远不会廉价。从经济和环境成本、再到对社会和人类的影响，这部精彩的六集纪录片审视战争机制，并探索当一个国家选择战争而不是和平时所必须付出的代价，以及最终付出这些代价的到底是谁。本片聚焦于解决全球问题，关注国际冲突，将引起世界各地观众的共鸣。。
