Data de estreia: Mai 04, 2022

The French village of Montaillou was the last stronghold of Catharism in 14th century France. This faith had great appeal to illiterate villagers who had little understanding of the Roman Catholic Church they belonged to. However, in 1308 Pope Gregory IX enlists the Dominicans to root out and destroy the sect, who were persecuted and even burnt at the stake.
