Isis

by Brigitte Riebe, Doris Kunstmann (Narrator)

Theben im 7. Jahrhundert vor Christus. Liebe und Eifersucht bestimmen die Beziehung der ungleichen Brüder Anu und Khay zu der schönen Bildhauertochter Isis. Als diese sich für den schüchternen Anu entscheidet, will sich der aufbrausende Khay nicht in die Rolle des Verlierers fügen. Isis sucht Rat bei der Seherin Meret, die eine furchtbare Vision hat: Brudermord! Wird es den Frauen gelingen, durch die Kraft der Liebe das vermeintlich unentrinnbare Schicksal aufzuhalten?
