Synopsis

King Henry V has died. For decades, England has been waging unsuccessful war with France. As infighting blights the English troops, their armies bit by bit lose the cities and territories he won. Henry V’s young son is crowned King but, in spite of his best efforts, his youth and inexperience proves no match for his enemies, both abroad and on his own soil.
