15th-century satire?
Or today's Inquisition 2.0?
When master manuscript illustrator Antonio Strozzi discovers a blasphemous typo in a Gutenberg Bible, it ignites chaos in 15th-century Florence. He and his assigned guard, Gabriele, are swept into a world where faith, power, and forbidden desires collide.
Amid schemes, swordplay, and ecclesiastical intrigue, this satirical adventure revels in irreverence and wit. "The Typo: In the Name of God" is a hilarious, poignant tale of error, resistance, and the enduring human need for love, laughter, and a little heresy.
As the printing press threatens to erase centuries-old creative professions, Antonio's journey mirrors today's anxieties over AI and creative automation. The Inquisition's shadow looms, echoing the rise of religious extremism and political theocracy in our own time.
History may not repeat, but it sure does rhyme.
