SECRETS OF CATHEDRALS

Between light and shadow

Synopsis

For 150 years, the Middle Ages saw the construction of immense Gothic cathedrals, the fruit of an architectural revolution in which builders pushed back the limits of stone and light.

But these exceptional works had their dark side, marked by power struggles, manipulation and trafficking of all kinds.

Between visionary genius and all-consuming ambition, this series explores a fascinating and troubled world where every building conceals many mysteries.
