This is a true story of timeless love. The innocent young aspiring nun Charlotte Corday assassinated the radical leader Jean Paul Marat hoping to save her beloved country from the violent turn the revolution had taken. Adam Lux, an idealistic young member of the Revolutionary Convention, was so awed by her courage and beauty that he demanded to join her in death -- a demand that was granted. Love bloomed amid the bloody chaos in those turbulent days.
