The Greek War for Independence is not covered much (or at all) in the US.
While this is not a strict telling of history, this historical "Romeo & Juliet"-esque romance/drama is set against a backdrop of this war in the early 1800s when Greece finally moved to open rebellion after 400 years of occupation by the Ottoman Empire.
Overall enjoyable if you can forgive some of the heavy-handed tropes from historical romances that creep in.
