Synopsis

Male nudity and homo scenes abound in this HBO series about the death of the Roman republic and the birth of the legendary empire.

Four hundred years after the founding of the Republic, Rome is the wealthiest city in the world, a cosmopolitan metropolis of one million people; epicenter of a sprawling empire. The Republic was founded on principles of shared power and fierce personal competition, never allowing one man to seize absolute control. But now, those foundations are crumbling, eaten away by corruption and excess. After eight years of war, two soldiers, Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo unwittingly become entwined in the historical events of ancient Rome. A serialized drama of love and betrayal, masters and slaves, husbands and wives, "Rome" chronicles a turbulent era that saw the death of the republic and the birth of an empire.

Includes 12 hour-long episodes on 6 discs plus a ton of bonus features.
