Arn Magnusson is born in 1150 on Arnas farm in Vastra Gotaland - west of Sweden.
He grows up to become an educated man and a skilled warrior. He then meets Cecilia, who becomes the love of his life. A Cruel and jealous world forces them apart, partly because they do get a child before marriage, Magnus. Cecilia is imprisoned in a monastery and Arn is sent away as a Knight Templar to the Holy Land, where war is raging between Christians and Muslims. They both have to fight to survive, they have to learn how how to confront evil and overcome physical hardship.
Their painful separation causes their faith in God and his goodness to waver- though not their faith in each other and their conviction that they will one day be reunited.
Comments:
I enjoyed the movie. Similar to the movie "Kingdom of Heaven".
Good acting. Realistic battle scene but without much bloodshed which is personally preferable.
The story combines love and war and captivates the audience.
