Details

Hippolytus, the numb and depressed heir to the throne sits in squalor, repelled by the hypocritical world he loathes to inhabit. He endeavours to fill life's void with excess - but nothing can satiate him. Phaedra, his stepmother, burns with desire for him. Her love rejected, she ignites a chain of events that finally give Hippolytus what he longs for. 16+
