Dramatization of the life of the 16th-century English scholar and statesman Sir Thomas More, who was beheaded by King Henry VIII for refusing to recognize him as the head of the Church of England.
Henry VIII wants to divorce his wife and seeks the approval of the aristocracy. Sir Thomas More is a man of principle and reason, and is thus placed in a difficult position: should he stand up for his principles, risking the wrath of a corrupt King fond of executing people for treason? Or should he bow to the seemingly unstoppable corruption of Henry VIII, who has no qualms about bending the law to suit his own needs?
