The story
In Egypt, thousands of years ago, pharaoh Seti ordered all male Hebrew babies to be drowned. A desperate mother places her son in a basket and lets the Hebrew god guide his way on the river. The basket is found by the queen and Moses is raised as the brother of the heir to the throne, Ramses II. Moses, now Prince of Egypt, discovers that he is Hebrew and that he was born a slave. He leaves Egypt and meets Jethro, the high priest, and marries a daughter, Tzporah. Moses must return to Egypt to liberate his people, guided by the hand of God.
The only problem is that his brother, Ramses II, is now the Pharaoh, and does not want to give in to the wonders of God. Moses will do everything to convince Ramses II to liberate his people.
