Overview:
It is an adaptation of the Greek tragedy Medea from Euripides, a version where the Gods willing and intervations are absent.

The king decides to exile Medea, as she is a danger for his daughter happiness, but Medea asks from him just a day… before she goes outside the borders. That day Medea gets her revenge.Status: | Released (1989-08-08) |
