Synopsis
Young Icarus lives a happy and humble life in the sculpture workshop of his father,
the famous inventor Daedalus. The day he discovers a little boy with a bull's head who lives hidden in the Royal palace of Knossos, a tender friendship rocks his world.
But when King Minos emprisons the "Monster" in the secret labyrinth built by Daedalus, Icarus loses his only friend as well as his trust in a beloved father.
As the handsome Prince Theseus arrives in Crete to kill the Minotaur, Icarus seizes one last chance to save his childhood friend. After a fateful night of death and betrayal, his disillusion culminates in a tragic choice between light and darkness.
