A sword-and-sorcery action adventure centered on female warriors seeking vengeance and liberation against Roman oppression, driven by spectacle and heroic momentum rather than introspection.

Set during the days of the Roman Empire. A simple village is raided by Roman troops, and most of the people are whisked off to be slaves or killed. Three women survive and set off to liberate their people. When they arrive at the Roman city, they team up with the local underground to seek vengeance and liberation of the slaves.
