Adelphe

In the year 832 BCE, two sisters flee murder and tyranny from their home city of Tyre. Seeking a place of refuge, these women and their followers cross the Great Sea first to Egypt and on to Libya where they establish the city of Carthage. The sisters' dream of a new home is almost realized when Prince Aeneas and his band of Trojan refugees arrive sowing the seeds of tragedy and eternal enmity between the empires of Rome and Carthage.
