The First World War is raging.
In the Arabian desert, at the time controlled by the Ottoman Empire, allied with Germany, the future of the entire Middle East is at stake.
Thomas Edward Lawrence, fascinated by Arab culture, whose language and local dialects he mastered, gained the trust of the Arabs, who now considered him one of their own.
The success of the tribal-led sabotage of the Hejaz railway, commanded by Lawrence, reassured the Arab leaders of the British commitment to the cause that the West itself had suggested: the creation of a united and independent Arab nation.
But what Lawrence did not know was that the French and British governments had already secretly signed the Sykes-Picot agreement, which provided for the division of the region to their sole benefit once the war was won...

How far will Lawrence's loyalty to his brothers in arms go when he realizes the extent of the orchestrated lie?
