SYNOPSIS

400 AD at the height of tension between the unruly Barbarian Clans and the imperialist Roman empire, Christo, a civilized barbarian, consistently tries and fails to bring Roman-esque decency, decorum, and cleanliness to his dim-witted yet affable brethren. An animated “Curb Your Enthusiasm-like” comedy that deals in purposely low stakes 21st century grievances against the backdrop of a high-stakes ancient world.
