Summary of the musical The Prince of Egypt:
In Egypt, thousands of years ago, Pharaoh Seti ordered all Hebrew male infants to be drowned. A desperate mother places her son in a basket and lets the Hebrew god guide his way down the river. The basket is found by the queen and Moses is raised as the brother of the heir to the throne, Ramesses 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 his daughter, Tzporah. Moses must return to Egypt to free his people, guided by the hand of God.
The only problem is that his brother, Ramses II, is now the Pharaoh, and won't back down. Moses will do everything to convince Ramses II to free his people.
