Synopsis

Ramesses III is remembered as Egypt's last great pharaoh, but the truth was very different. With the help of papyrus that was never intended to survive, the dark workings of a pharaoh in crisis are revealed. It's a story of conspiracy, vengeance, and murder that belies the positive image of his reign that Ramesses III wanted future generations to believe.
