May 1793. The most terrifying year of the French Revolution—the year that marked the beginning of the Vendée uprising against the revolutionary government of France. A brutal confrontation between supporters of the revolutionary movement and its opponents. Hundreds of lost lives on both sides of the barricades. And a constant attempt to find answers to questions: What matters more—political beliefs or universal human values? And can freedom be worth more than human life?
