Young Phaedra could not even imagine that by the will of the gods she would be the wife of Theseus, the king of Athens, instead of her sister Ariadne. Naive and inexperienced, at first she resigns herself to her fate: to be invisible at the court of a much older husband and endure rudeness from his stepson Hippolytus. But when Hippolyte attacks and takes her by force, Phaedra refuses to be silent and calls him to trial. Phaedra is an outlander with a tarnished reputation. Hippolytus is a model of honor and virtue who swore allegiance to the goddess Artemis. Who will be the victim? And who will be punished? Now the fate of Phaedra and Hippolytus is in the power of the great men of Athens, and only women understand how slippery the truth can be in selfish hands.
