Young Timo is an orphan of Pompeii’s terrible eruption, adopted by general Chirone and raised in the most famous Gladiators’ Academy in Rome. However Timo is not exactly gladiator material! He is a bit overweighted and generally wants to hang out with his friends. Everything changes when lovely Lucilla, the daughter of general Chirone, comes back from her education in Greece.
