As the king begrudgingly grants her request to spend one last day in Corinth, the stage is set for a revenge so poignant it transcends time.This gripping adaptation delves deep into themes of betrayal, sacrifice, and retribution, challenging viewers with a story that remains as captivating today as it was over two millennia ago when first penned by Euripides.
