Historical blockbuster: the cornerstone piece of the national cinematic epic, with action set during and after the second Dacian-Roman war (106–114), in the territory where new relationships begin to crystallize between victors and vanquished, between the winners of battles and the surviving native population, between those who seek to avenge past defeats and those who pursue reconciliation in order to halt the barbarian invasions. – Bujor T. Râpeanu (Filmed in Romania, 2004, Pro Foundation Publishing)
