Overview

Don Sallust is the minister of the King of Spain. Being disingenuous, hypocritical, greedy and collecting the taxes for himself, he is hated by the people he oppresses. Accused by The Queen, a beautiful princess Bavarian, of having an illegitimate child to one of her maids of honor, he was stripped of his duties and ordered to retire to a monastery.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A spirited romp through courtly intrigue where a corrupt minister schemes his way through increasingly outlandish disguises and conspiracies. It's the kind of film that winks at its own ridiculousness while keeping you entertained by the sheer audacity of its plot twists.
