Borgia (also known as Borgia: Faith and Fear) is a French-German-Czech-Italian historical drama television series created by Tom Fontana. The show recounts the Borgia family's rise to power and subsequent domination of the Papal States during the Renaissance. Borgia debuted in Italy via Sky Italia on July 10, 2011, and in North America via Netflix on October 2, 2011. It was since renewed for a second season, which premiered in France on Canal+ on March 18, 2013, and on Netflix on May 1, 2013. A third and last season premiered in France on Canal+ on September 15, 2014, and on Netflix on November 1, 2014. The series finale aired in France on Canal+ on October 27, 2014 as the 38th episode overall. It was the age of da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Machiavelli; an age of enlightened creativity and prolific intellectual achievement. But it was also the age of rampant lawlessness, incessant war, and unspeakable depravity. At the heart of the world order was the Vatican, the arbiter of conflicts between kingdoms and empires. And at the center of the Vatican was a man whose quest for power would propel him to seek the ultimate prize, the Holy See of Rome. He was a man whose name would become synonymous with ruthlessness and whose reign as pope would be remembered as the most infamous chapter of the history of the Catholic church – Rodrigo Borgia.[ His four children – Juan, a prideful, lazy, unscrupulous sexual predator; Cesare, a young man torn between a faith that was not his calling and his dark violent nature; Lucrezia, a young girl discovering the secret power that a woman's sexuality holds; and Goffredo, an innocent child who would come of age in a family riven by conflict – would provide Rodrigo with a challenge as great as the political maneuvering of his political and religious rivals.[ The series chronicles the rise to power of this Spanish Cardinal and his clan, who would seek to establish a dynasty that would hold sway over the entire world. Though a man of faith, Rodrigo was also in thrall to the pleasures of the flesh. Not only did he have to deal with the plotting and conspiracies of his fellow cardinals and the representatives of the great powers, he was also locked in a struggle to contain the bitter sibling rivalries that threatened to tear his family apart. The series shows the lives of the Borgia as a cauldron of intrigue, violence, murder, lust, politics, faith, incest, betrayal, and redemption.[The series depicts medieval forms of execution, including the wheel and the saw. The series is produced by Atlantique Productions, a subsidiary of Lagardère Entertainment, for French premium-pay TV Canal+ in association with EOS Entertainment, and was filmed in the Czech Republic and in Italy. Czech production was held by company Etic films. International distribution is handled by Beta Film GmbH. Season 3 has been filmed from May 27, 2013 to January 27, 2014. Even though the series is considered a French-German-Czech-Italian production,[the whole setup is very international. The series creator, producer, and lead writer Tom Fontana, as well as the other writers including Sean Whitesell (House M.D., Cold Case, Homicide: Life on the Street), Gina Gionfriddo (Law & Order, Law & Order: Criminal Intent) and Larry Cohen (HBO's In Treatment, The Philanthropist), among several others are all American. Season 2 sees French writer Audrey Fouché join the writing team. The directors come from several different parts of Europe, Oliver Hirschbiegel (Diana, The Invasion starring Daniel Craig) and Christoph Schrewe are Germans, Dearbhla Walsh is Irish and best known for her work in UK (The Tudors, Shameless, BBC's '"Little Dorrit), Metin Hüseyin is British (Inspector Lewis, Shameless, Merlin) and Thomas Vincent is French. The series follows a rather unique format in that each director is in charge of directing at least two consecutive episodes before handing the series over to a new director. The main character, Rodrigo Borgia, is portrayed by American actor John Doman (The Wire, Damages). The rest of the cast hails from United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Czech Republic, but countries like Republic of Ireland, Denmark, and Spain and several others are also represented.
