The time is 1808 and Napoleon's French army is invading Spain. They are about to conquer Barcelona and Madrid, and put Napoleon's brother Joseph Bonaparte on the Spanish throne -- for awhile, anyway. The legend that this film portrays is about a drummer boy who was pivotal in turning the tide against the invading French army at Bruch Pass, saving the day for the Catalan soldiers. A final, grand battle highlights the climax of the film, certainly geared for the younger set.
