Summary
In the autumn of 1430, Joan of Arc is taken prisoner by a powerful
nobleman of Northern France and sold to the English. As the young
woman languishes in her prison cell, awaiting her trial and probable
execution for heresy, several men pay her a visit, hoping to understand
just who she is - a messenger from God, a disciple of the Devil, or
merely a poor mad child...?
