Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
It is perhaps a little-remembered fact that Attilla the Hun devastated not only the steppes of Asia, but extended his conquests well into the center of Europe including France and Italy in the middle of the fifth century. In this story, his ninth-century Magyar descendants led by Prince Arpad (Franco Nero) leave their highland homeland and fight their way westward to what was later to become the mysterious land of Hungary, in a region that had been in the middle of the famous Attilla's domains. Of all the peoples they encounter, the inhabitants of this region are the only ones who openly welcomed the descendants of the great marauder.
