Description
The Philosopher Kings is the extraordinary true story of the fight for democracy and the quest for truth in ancient Greece. The story is based upon the life and battles of the Athenian general Thrasybulus and the philosophy of Socrates.
In the year 404 BCE, democracy is dismantled in Athens by the Lacedaemonians at the end of the Peloponnesian War. Installed in its place is a group of ruthless oligarchs known as the Thirty Tyrants. Athenian exiles, under the command of Thrasybulus and his partners, rebel against their despotic regime as they endeavor to restore democracy.
