Additional Details
The Trojan War is over—one of the harshest wars in the history of ancient Greece. Troy is going up in flames, and amid the ruins, the Greek soldiers must decide what to do with the surviving Trojan royal women—the “grand prize” of the victorious army.
Over the course of one fateful day, the Trojan women who survived the war will try to persuade the Greeks to let them live and set them free. But is there even anything worth living for? What kind of freedom awaits them once the war is over? And if the war has ended, why are we still fighting?
Come be part of this fateful broadcast that will change everything! Commercials—and we’re live!
