Description:
Roland des Roncesvalles is a legendary knight from 11th-century France, central to the epic poem *La Chanson de Roland*, where he famously prevents the Muslim advance into the country. The story unfolds in the 12th century, staged by a group of pilgrims who perform the 11th-century poem. Their performance is violently disrupted by a peasant uprising that results in many deaths. One survivor, however, joins the peasant cause and later advocates for fairer treatment for the oppressed.
