Unlike many other titans of the late Republican era, Marcus Tullius Cicero was not born to extraordinary power or fame. His prominent place in history is largely a product of his talent, his enormous professional output, and his uncanny knack for self-promotion.
Cicero became a household name in Rome after he took on -- and won -- a court case that no lawyer would touch, and one which cut dangerously close to Sulla, the powerful former dictator. This true crime documentary looks at the scandalous killing that shocked the people of Rome - the murder trial of a man accused of killing his own father.
