Plot – Joan of Arc is the second child of a modest farmers' family. She was born in Domrémy, a French village, in 1412. This is a though time for the country as part of the nation is under the British domination after the Hundred Years War. Domrémy's area is upset particularly by the civil war between Armagnacs and Burgundians, who both aim to control Orléans, a city on the banks of the Loire. Once she's 17, she is received by Charles VIII, heir to the throne of France, and obtains the command of the army. After many bloody clashes, her soldiers win over the British at Orleans. The following year, king Charles VIII chooses diplomacy rather than war and Joan is imprisoned and sold to the British enemy. She's 19 when she's accused of witchcraft, processed and burned alive. Twenty-five years later, Joan of Arc is declared innocent and in 1920 she's proclaimed Saint by Pope Benedict XV.
