The TV drama follows the life of Bishop Gellért. The Venetian-born abbot came to Hungary and soon found himself in the inner circles of the royal court, becoming tutor to the young Prince Imre. Gellert was elevated to the episcopate by St Stephen in 1030. He had a cathedral and monastery built in Csanád. After the death of the king, he tried to preserve the spiritual values of the Hungarians. In 1046, he was captured by rebellious pagans and thrown into the Danube from the Kelen hill.
