16th France: Michael Kohlhaas, a horse dealer and loving father, lives a happy and prosperous life in the peaceful countryside. But when a cruel, rapacious baron seizes his livelihood and defiles his family's honour he will take up arms and set out on a mission for vengeance that will send the kingdom up in flames... A cold, steely, blood-soaked medieval epic, featuring commanding central performance from Mads Mikkelsan (Hannibal, Clash of the Titans, Valhalla Rising), Age of Uprising is a gripping tale of revenge, righteousness and rebellion.
