In this epic retelling of queen Dido's story, the clever and determined Elissa finds herself sidelined after her father's death, as powerful merchants favor her compliant half-brother, Pygmalion, for leadership. Exiled from her palace, she embarks on a transformative journey that leads to the founding of Carthage. As Dido, the wanderer, she faces the heart-wrenching dilemma of choosing between love and power when the enigmatic Aeneas arrives seeking refuge from the Trojan War.
