Synopsis

Poland in the early 15th century: at this time, geocentrism, a model of the universe in which the earth is the centre of the universe, is the prevailing worldview. Anyone researching a star constellation deviated from this view is branded a heretic and punished by the church. After just the second offence, one is burned alive at the stake.

At just twelve years of age, model student Rafal already has a place at university. There, he wants to study theology, the most prestigious of all subject areas. At his school, he is praised by teachers and classmates alike, but as he grew up as an orphan, Rafal also knows the unpleasant side of life. Though, above all that, he is good at living smartly, so he acts rationally to continue to lead a good life. He says what others want to hear and does what others expect of him, which is why he has to give up his passion: astrology.

Through his guardian, Professor Potocki, Rafal meets the heretic Hubert, who has been arrested for illegal research and is now released. Hubert was researching a worldview in which the sun is the centre of the universe – heliocentrism. It doesn’t take long for Hubert to realise that Rafal is also very interested in astrology and wants to find out the truth about the universe. He asks Rafal to continue the research in his place, but this is a dangerous endeavour that could mean death if the church finds out. Is Rafal prepared to risk his life to advance science …?
