00:00Our king Odysseus, the smartest of all the heroes, he led us for ten years in the Trojan War, before
00:09his brilliant plan to build the Great Horse.
00:12The Trojans thought it was a gift and took it behind their walls, then outpoured our soldiers.
00:21Odysseus led us to victory.
00:24People love stories.
00:26You were there?
00:30I am Odysseus' wife.
00:32Odysseus is dead.
00:33Not to me.
00:34There is no king.
00:35He sailed to Trojan years ago, took the best men with him.
00:39All year, suitors have been turning up, waiting for his widow to choose a new husband to be king.
00:44Scoundrels, they're just here for your wealth.
00:48Look at this island, a wasteland.
00:51Gangs of thugs terrifying the people.
00:54They need me alive, at least until I choose my husband.
00:59Mother, we can't live with those savages anymore.
01:02I will choose soon, when I finish my wedding cloak.
01:06That one's making a fool of you, of us all.
01:12I know who you are.
01:13A tramp.
01:15If I were free, I'd fight for what was mine.
01:17I'd fight for my people.
01:21What will the people say when they see I have returned alone?
01:24That I led all their men to their deaths.
01:27This land is ruined.
01:30I sacrificed it for him.
01:34I have a proposal for you.
01:37Hunting party.
01:38Where is he?
01:41Who are you?
01:43Your waiting is over.
01:46The one amongst you, who can string the bow, and shoot the arrow through the axes, that man will be
01:53my husband.
01:57Close the gates.
01:59How can men find a war, but not find their way home?
02:03Some war becomes home.
02:08Give the man the bow.
02:09Give the man the bow.
