Biografía sobre el médico del siglo XVI, que hoy en día sigue levantando mucha curiosidad. El turco Tchéky Karyo es Nostradamus en este film de Roger Christian que destaca por la cuidada ambientación, el ritmo y unas notables interpretaciones.
Recounts the life and loves of the physician, astrologer, and famed prognosticator; his encounters with medieval science and the Inquisition; and his early struggles with his visions of the future. The film is set in France in the 16th century during one of the periodic plague outbreaks (as opposed to the Black Death [mid-14th-century Europe] or the Black Plague [mid-17th-century London]). The film depicts Nostradamus's rise in influence, because of both his success in treating plague and his predictions, culminating in his appointment as court physician to Charles IX of France.
