The name Achilles induces the image of the consummate warrior, an icon of an ancient time that has held its fascination for thousands of years. Yet his story remained scattered in the works of ancient poets, with occasional pieces brought to the big screen, until now. The Fire of Destiny tells Achilless story from his traumatic birth at Phthia to his vindictive war against Troy. Even more, it tells the story of the women who helped shape a man of destiny.
