Beatrice Giai Gischia
For the first time, the story of Leonida's wife, the hero of Thermopilai, recreated according to Herodotus's texts. This is a very strong woman, educated, emancipated. She lives in Sparta 2500 years ago and fights for women's rights. She lives during the wars between Greeks and Persians and she'll lose her husband in the war, but her bravery and love for the homeland will always remain.
