A TIME WHEN BOOKS WERE THE GREATEST TREASURE

A SLAVE GUARDIAN OF ETERNAL WISDOM

AN INFINITE LIBRARY TO SAVE US FROM OBLIVION

The year 973 A.C. There was a time when only books could guard wisdom, and so they became treasures. To protect them, the greatest library in the history of the West was born in Cordoba. It is there that Nasir, a young doctor from Baghdad, arrives with the mission of finding a valuable manuscript. There he meets Lubna, one of the Caliph's most daring and closest slaves, a keeper of wisdom and books.

The Library of Cordoba takes us back to the splendour of the Caliphate, where women - poets, mathematicians, curators and cataloguers - were in charge of safeguarding knowledge. This extraordinary story, full of palace intrigue, mystery and passion, will forever mark the destiny of Nasir and Lubna.
