SYNOPSIS

U četverodijelnoj seriji prikazan je životni put Fausta Vrančića (Šibenik, 1551. - Venecija, 1617.), poznatog izumitelja, diplomata, inženjera, svećenika i biskupa, jezikoslovca, hrvatskog polihistora.
Uz ozračje i okolnosti koje su utjecale na njegov životni put u seriji "Faust Vrančić" osobiti naglasak dan je njegovoj izumiteljskoj i znanstvenoj djelatnosti: konstrukcijama mlinova, žičara, visećih metalnih mostova, satova... a posebno njegovom remek-djelu - nacrtu padobrana čiji se pravokutni oblik koristi i danas.
Prva epizoda prati djetinjstvo i ranu mladost Fausta Vrančića od odrastanja u Šibeniku i Šepurinama preko školovanja u Bratislavi i Padovi do odlaska na službu u Veszprem. Osobiti je naglasak stavljan na njegovu izumiteljsku djelatnost vezanu uz mlinove za koju je inspiraciju crpio iz rodne sredine kao i iz onodobne znanstvene literature. Taj aspekt njegova djelovanja na osobit način obrađuje publicist Milivoj Zenić.
