Portugal. During the reign of King John V, a young descendant of the oldest nobility delves into the mysteries of science, art, literature. But love will lead him to deepen all these findings and look at them in a different light. Always a privileged presence in the court and knowledge, a connoisseur of high jewelery and the moods of society, he will soon discover, at the mercy of fate and the strenght of the passion for the beautiful Italian bourgeois that he loves, that the Portugal he knows also has a hidden face.
