Overview
Released in 2004, the film Nero explores the life of the historical figure through a narrative that depicts him as a good soul who ultimately goes mad. As a young boy, the future emperor Nero witnesses the mad Emperor Caligula kill his father and exile his mother. While in exile in the pontine islands, his mother Agrippina receives a vision telling her that her son can become emperor, but she will have to die first, a proposal she accepts. Following Caligula's death, Nero is raised by Emperor Claudius, and Agrippina returns to Rome. She poisons the food of Claudius, allowing Nero to become emperor. Early in his reign, Nero cuts taxes, introduces successful programs, and invades Britannia. Half of the film focuses on his teenage years and his love life, including meeting and marrying a beautiful slave named Claudia Acte.
