The film is about Averroes, a 12th-century philosopher from Andalusia who would be known as the most important commentator on Aristotle. The film is set in Córdoba and depicts the relationship between the Caliph and Averroes, who is one of his most trusted advisors. Religious fanatics start gaining control and begin influencing the Caliph's decisions, leading to the persecution of the philosopher, and to political unrest in Andalusia.
