He was the most powerful man in the world... At the heart of this mini series of four episodes, a simple man... Not a legend, nor a hero greater than nature. This is about the real Napoleon Bonaparte, a human being with human needs, a man filled with desires, strengths and weaknesses. A man moved by unbridled will and energy, who could brag about "losing perhaps a battle, but never wasting a minute of my time." A man who, through the sheer force of events, raised himself above all mortals to gain a quasi mythical status.
