But his authority is called into question by the arrival of Saint Georges, a mysterious prisoner possessed by a secret force which he will soon learn how to control. Using his power to face the hostility of his fellow prisoners and to release them from the maleficent attraction of Dante's hell Cesar will be shown visions that only the Gods can see (Twitch).

This movie looks pretty good. I read the divine comedy during high school and I always love to see the interpretations people make of hell.
The "Divine Comedy," is one book I have not read. And this movie, which I saw recently is very hellish, and bizarre.
