A contemporary re-telling of one of the most beloved stories of Greek mythology. Sister-Goddesses Demeter and Hestia are just trying to get by. They have bills to pay, and little Persephone to care for. The reign and rules of Zeus seem far behind them until young Persephone makes a fateful decision and runs away into the arms of Hades, keeper to the Underworld. Demeter & Hestia must now return to the mountain kingdom they left millennia ago, to save what remains of their family, before time runs out. The story of Persephone remains, as it always was, a story of love; how we abuse it, how it deceives us and how it makes life worth living.
