Summary of the film
A fantasy action film inspired by the ancient Egyptian tale of The Contendings of Horus and Seth. In this version the gods live among humans as their rulers. Seth kills king Osiris during the coronation of Horus whom he subsequently defeats depriving him of his eyes. In order to retrieve them Horus will need help from a pair of humans: Bek and Zaya who join their forces with the deities loyal to the legacy of Osiris in order to overthrow the evil Seth.
