Nadja the slave girl, as sensuous as she is savage, was captured and forced into training to become a gladiator. She fights hard and well, intent on attaining a long sought freedom.
Liza, the Queen, as passionate as she is powerful, married into royalty but her adventurous spirit leads her down the path of the gladiator. Mindful of her husband, the King she shields her identity and fights in secrecy.
Playing the puppet master is Malakai, the King's brother and Captain of the Guards, whos obsession with turning profit through bloodshed unleashes his frustrations on his gladiators leading both Nadja and Liza to face off in a batle to end all others. Their time is now. Life and death, love and hate, separated by one swing of the sword.
The Crescent combines two very successful and popular dynamics in recent years: the emergence of the "kick-ass female" protagonist and the success of period-piece adventure films. At its heart The Crescent holds a compelling story that is sure to woo critics and garner word of mouth publicity.
