A captivating documentary blending 3D reconstructions with expert commentary from historians. Long regarded as a bloodthirsty tyrant, the Roman Emperor Nero is now undergoing a historical re-evaluation. In this first installment, ancient historians Mischa Meier and Claudia Tiersch, alongside church historian Christoph Markschies, examine the emperor's life (37–68 AD), precisely highlighting both his often-overlooked talents and his failings. The son of Agrippina, Nero felt compelled to have her executed to put an end to their ceaseless power struggles. Furthermore, the emperor faced opposition from the elite, who mocked his artistic ambitions and failed to understand his disapproval of gladiatorial combat and wars of expansion. Nero's notorious reputation stems largely from the vindictiveness of chroniclers belonging to the ruling class—a group whose influence he had consistently curtailed.
