In the early thirteenth century, a new conflict erupted within Christian Europe itself. The Cathar movement in southern France, with its ideas of spiritual purity and rejection of material power, challenged both the Church and the feudal order.
Pope Innocent III declared a crusade not against distant enemies, but within the borders of Europe — a campaign that would transform the political and religious landscape of the continent. The Albigensian Crusade brought northern lords into the rich lands of Languedoc, led by Simon de Montfort and guided by papal authority.
This documentary explores the rise of the Cathars, the siege of Béziers and Carcassonne, and the long war that followed. Through chronicles and historical records, it reveals how this struggle reshaped medieval France, gave rise to the Inquisition, and marked the end of southern independence.
