Bugger

Kingdom of France, late thirteenth century. The Templar Foulques, back from the crusade, take a rest in a castle for the night. For the lord| his arrival is a boon, as he needs a military to escort Theobald, a sodomite knight, to the city where he must be judged and punished. Having sworn allegiance to church, Foulques cannot refuse the mission he is designed for. Accompanied by three mercenaries, the prisoner and the soldier of God engage in an arid and wild scrubland. But is the men’s justice the same than God’s ?
