Farinelli is a tormented being with androgynous beauty. Castrated at a young age by his brother, the composer Ricardo Broschi, he becomes an extraordinary singer, admired for the clarity of his tone, the agility of his ornaments, and the control of his breath. Adored by both the public and political, intellectual, and artistic personalities, he becomes a legend of his time. But rivalries and jealousies surface. When Farinelli falls in love with Alexandra, the truth must come to light.
