In the chaos of war-torn Spain, a battered army retreats through the mountains, leaving behind a massive bronze cannon. Abandoned in the mud, it seems destined to be lost to history—until the local villagers, toughened by adversity and driven by defiance, drag it from the wreckage. With brute strength and ingenuity, they haul the great gun into hiding, unknowingly setting events into motion that will change the course of their struggle.
As Napoleon’s forces tighten their grip on the land, the gun falls into the hands of a cunning guerilla leader. What begins as a desperate act of resistance soon becomes a campaign of daring ambushes and relentless attacks, with the gun at the heart of it all. Each shot fired is a challenge to the enemy, each battle a gamble for survival. But as the war rages on, the question remains—can one cannon turn the tide of an empire?
