Summary:

Dante: Inferno to Paradise explores the riveting life and times of Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) and his soaring masterpiece, The Divine Comedy, arguably the greatest single work ever created in the history of Western literature. Directed by Ric Burns, and written by Burns and Riccardo Bruscagli, the film chronicles the mesmerizing story, at once dreamlike and hyper-real, that unfolds within the poem itself, the story of how Dante managed to create it under such unpromising circumstances, and how it has been transmitted over time.
