In 1656, at the height of The Dutch Golden Age, two giants of European culture philosopher Baruch Spinoza, a Jew of Portugese descent, and Rembrandt van Rijn, the greatest Dutch Master, find themselves inextricably linked through a failed mercantile venture and membership of the freethinking 'Waterlanders' which, in challenging the Calvinist doctrine of the day, pits them against the authorities in Amsterdam.
