十三世纪，牧师已经开始用“所罗门之书”对抗女巫和恶魔。一百年后，在十字军战争中因为战功卓著而声名鹊起的骑士贝曼（尼古拉斯·凯奇 Nicolas Cage 饰）和老搭档菲尔森(朗·普尔曼 Ron Perlman 饰）厌倦了战争的残酷，二人解甲返乡，但他们在小镇上看到的却是瘟疫肆虐的景象。贝曼和菲尔森因逃兵的身份被收押，当地领主了解二人的功勋，随即代表教会委托给他们押送一个女巫去修道院接受审判的任务。贝曼、菲尔德以及当地的一位牧师、一名骑士，还有一个担任向导的盗贼组成了一支押送队。笼中的少女看起来毫无威胁并且无辜，贝曼难以相信她是带来瘟疫的女巫。沿路一位年轻骑士加入了他们的队伍，但同时莫名的血腥异像也反复出现，贝曼一行在抵达终点时终于发现，这一切都是恶魔的一场阴谋……。Dr Janina Ramirez unlocks the secrets of illuminated manuscripts that were custom-made for kings and explores the medieval world they reveal. Part 1: Ruling by the Book Janina begins her journey with the first Anglo-Saxon rulers to create a united England, encountering books in the British Library's Royal manuscripts collection which are over a thousand years old and a royal family tree which is five metres long. Janina finds out about a king who had a reputation for chasing nuns and reads a book created as a wedding gift for a ten-year-old prince. She roams from Westminster Abbey to other ancient English spiritual sites such as Winchester, St Albans and Malmesbury, and sees for herself how animal skins can be transformed into the finest vellum. Part 2: What a King Should Know Janina shows how medieval manuscripts gave power to the king and united the kingdom in an age of plague, warfare and rebellion, discovers that Edward III used the manuscripts he read as a boy to prepare him for his great victory at the battle of Crecy and reveals how a vigorous new national identity bloomed during the 100 Years War with France. In the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection Dr Ramirez finds out that magnificent manuscripts like the Bedford Hours, taken as war booty from the French royal family, were adapted for the education of English princes. She also explores how knowledge spread through a new form of book - the encyclopaedia. Part 3: Libraries Gave Us Power The story of the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection reaches its end with the last great flowering of illumination, in the magnificent courts of the Tudors. She investigates astrological texts created for Henry VII, and unwraps his will - still in its original, extravagantly-decorated velvet and gold cover. She hears music written for Henry VIII, which went unperformed for centuries| and reads love notes between the king and Anne Boleyn, written in the margins of a prayer book. Nina also visits Bruges, the source of many of the greatest manuscripts, where this medieval art form collided with the artistic innovations of the Renaissance. （转自mvgroup论坛）。
