Plot

The film is an original and personal look at the origins of Napoleon Bonaparte and his rapid and ruthless rise to emperor, seen through the prism of his addictive and often volatile relationship with his wife and his one true love, Josephine de Beauharnais. He managed to conquer the world trying to conquer his love, but since he saw that it did not work, he decided to conquer everything with the aim of destroying her and ended up destroying himself in the process.

The film will follow Napoleon's rise to power as well as all the ups and downs of his relationship with his wife and only love, Empress Josephine. Napoleon, a fascinating and iconic man in French history came from nowhere to rule all, but meanwhile he was living a romantic war with his adulterous wife.

Napoleon' is an spectacle of action and epicity detailing the rapid rise and fall of the iconic French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, played by Oscar winner Joaquin Phoenix. What's more, he does so by showcasing his visionary political and military tactics through some of the most dynamic practical battle sequences ever filmed.

After a long shooting directed by the iconic director Ridley Scott about a real story told big time, the movie shows the incessant run which Bonaparte lived until he obtained the power.
