Dante: Inferno to Paradise, Season 1

Dante explores the life and legacy of Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) and his soaring masterpiece The Divine Comedy – inarguably one of the greatest achievements in the history of literature.

Directed by Ric Burns, the film chronicles the mesmerizing story that unfolds within the poem itself, how the exiled poet managed to create it under the most unpromising circumstances, and its relevance today.
