In 16th-century Russia in the grip of chaos, Ivan the Terrible strongly believes he is vested with a holy mission.

During this reign of terror, Philip, the superior of the monastery on the Solovetsky Islands, a great scholar and Ivan's close friend, dares to oppose the sovereign's mystical tyranny.
