Synopsis
King Henry V has died. For decades, England has been waging unsuccessful war with France. As infighting blights the English troops, their armies bit by bit lose the cities and territories he won. Henry V’s young son is crowned King but in spite of his best efforts, his youth and inexperience prove no match for his enemies, both abroad and on his own home.
