How it feels

This docudrama explores how Dante Alighieri's "Divine Comedy" was shaped by the political turmoil of 1300s Europe. Scholars provide historical context for the conflicts between kings, popes, and rulers that Dante witnessed and wrote about. The film uses dramatic recreations to show how his poem served as a record of his era.
