Im Auftrag von Kaiser Valentian schließt Feldherr Aetius mit dem Hunnenkönig Bleda einen Friedenspakt. Doch Bledas machthungriger Bruder Attila will sich nicht der Gnade Roms fügen. Er lässt seinen Bruder und dessen Gefolge kaltblütig ermorden. Nun hindert ihn nichts mehr, gegen die verhassten Römer in die Schlacht zu ziehen. Unerwartete Hilfe bei seinen Plänen erfährt er durch Honoria, die Schwester des Kaisers. Sie bietet sich ihm als Ehefrau an, wenn Attila ihr hilft den, verhassten Stiefbruder vom Thron zu stürzen. Doch Attila entschließt sich, allein dem Schwert zu vertrauen und führt seine Hunnen in die alles entscheidende Schlacht. 

On the orders of Emperor Valentian, General Ezio concludes a peace treaty with the king of the Huns, Bleda.  But Bleda's powerhungry brother Atilla no isn't interested in being hostage to Rome's mercy.  He has his brother and his followers murdered in cold blood.  Now there's no one to stop him from engaging hated Rome in a battle to the death.  He receives help from an unexpected quarter:  Honoria, the Emperor's sister.  She offers herself to him as his bride, if he'll help her topple her despised brother from the throne.  But Attila decides to entrust his fate to the sword alone and leads his Huns to the decisive battle.
