Marco Polo

Discover the legendary tale of the famous explorer Marco Polo, a personal journey which changed the world forever. Following his early years, Marco (Ian Somerhalder, The Vampire Diaries, Lost) embarks on an epic adventure to bring Christianity into the court of Kublai Khan (Brian Dennehy, Death Of A Salesman). Assigned to accompany two priests on this mission, he soon finds himself alone when the clergymen flea the mission doubting the very existence of China. Bravely pushing forward Polo enters into the exotic world of the fabled land, becoming a trusted envoy in the Khan’s court.

Faced with exotic dignitaries, foreign delicacies and an advanced economy, Marco’s greatest challenge of all is yet to come as he must wield the Khan’s court which is full of rivalry, greed, sexual intrigue and betrayal. Marooned on this far side of the world, Marco spends the next twenty years as a Mongol grandee documenting his experiences. When he finally returns to the West, he brings with him a chronicle that changed history for eternity.
