The Story:
In the tenth year of the epic siege of Troy, mighty Greek warrior Achilles (Gordon Mitchell) clashes with supreme commander Agamemnon (Mario Petri) when the latter seizes Achilles’ beloved captive Briseis (Gloria Milland) as retribution for returning his own war prize to appease the wrathful gods, prompting the enraged hero to withdraw his invincible Myrmidon army and abandon the battlefield to divine intervention by the Olympian deities themselves.
As Trojan prince Hector (Jacques Bergerac) exploits the Greek divisions with a ferocious coastal assault, driving the beleaguered forces back to their ships, Achilles’ loyal comrade Patroclus (Ennio Girolami) dons the hero’s divine armor to rally the troops and repel the invaders, only to meet a tragic end in single combat at Hector’s hands, igniting Achilles’ insatiable thirst for vengeance.
Witness the thunderous fury of gods and mortals in this poetic spectacle of honor, betrayal, and brutal glory, where Achilles unleashes a rampage culminating in a fateful duel that seals the doom of heroes and echoes the timeless verses of Homer’s Iliad!
