Synopsis:

When a particularly sissy Caesar orders his general Rhinus to proceed with the conquest of Britain, which is just a mosaic of inter-warring Celtic tribes related to the Gauls he already subjugated, those send Marcosivellauniviromandiboule (aka Young Gaul) to the Dubonni, a measly tribe where three sisters play a leading role, and therefore see the messenger foremost as an ideal catch for the unmarried youngest; his bed-test goes great, while a Roman attack on the rivaling neighbor Kent tribe is welcomed without any strategic foresight. Nevertheless the Roman war machine rolls on, so war must be engaged, however again in their, female-shaped way.

An outrageous comedy that turns the macho tradition of sword and sandal epics on its head, this is the story of three sisters with an axe to grind! The year is 55BC, and the mighty Romans, beating a bloody swathe across the European continent, have set their sights on a small and rather damp island across the narrow waters of the Channel... Now, with the Romans invading, it falls to the sisters to save their country from the bonds of slavery...
