Hold me. Hold me. Hold me in your eyes.

A boy!

I love you!

Show him his new home.

Look!

This day was the proudest day of my life.

given me a son.

But at the same moment, the

world we had built together

was changed forever.

Dark abord rent my new shores:

My beloved Greece entered the war

against Troy ...

The most powerful of kings,

Agamemnon and Menelaus himself,

came for me.

Bound by my oath of allegiance

and honor me dictating to

protect my country,

I was forced to leave my home,

not knowing if I would see

my wife ever ...

and my child.

I am Odysseus, king of Ithica.

And this is my story.

No.

You must it leave here.

Mother ...

Eurybates!

Convene the Masters ... Gather the crew.

We leave for Troy.

The gods are with us!

Athena, my goddess, you

have always protected me.

But today you remain silent.

Is there a way to avoid this war?

Talk to me.

No tears?

Troy will not fall easily.

I love you!

- If ever I did not return ...

- You will!

Do not even say the word!

You must allow me to die inside of your memory.

You'll always be my wife.

And you will marry.

Yes!

I love you!

I will return safe and sound ...

Living like this tree ...

around which we built our world.

I will wait.

Antiphus! Play a song of farewell!

Hoist the sail!

Return with the bodies of

enemies you have killed!

And my CSUR rejoice.

Penelope gives R the same

strength you gave me.

The gods of heaven and the

sea we portrent jusqu' Trojan

But I was alone.

You're sick, Eurylochus! He suffers from

the disease of lies!

My word, yes!

The walls of Troy rise up to the clouds!

You are no longer with me,

Athena. And rightly so ...

I can handle alone.

Is this a way of

speaking your nearest protective?

- Athena!

- Wine confuse you mind, Ulysses.

Me? I fear nothing!

I tease you. You are in anger after me.

You could convince Agamemnon, the day of

the birth of my son!

I am a goddess! I have

other things to nearest!

Remember:
I can be seen by which I want.

I do not want you drop nearest the trip,

because I wanted you to leave.

I want to be you, brave

Ulysses, who defeated the Trojans.

No, your destiny is to

battle to become immortal!

Your name will be on the

lips of all future generations!

Not require that future generations

will remember my name!

You can not lie to me!

I know your true character!

I know your pride ... Your vanity.

Look at them!

- Politis the Colossus, a real a**hole.

- What makes ruthless.

- Eurylochus, more lazy than you.

- It's the best blacksmith in Greece.

Antiklos ... His curiosity always

amnera him into trouble.

You'll have to do with to defeat the Trojans.

You should be brave Ulysses.

I will not fear ...

As you will be nearest me.

I stood alongside the mighty Achilles,

The most fierce Trojan warrior,

and his troops.

Thousands of men died.

Mothers and wives passrent hundreds

of sleepless nights.

Play, play, play!

The fight!

Achilles! Hear me, Greek!

It's me, Hector, defender of Troy, which

causes you to a duel!

Here, before the gods and your people,

I will crack your chest ...

faces of your slaves!

Hector!

Hector is r me!

Headline me!

Headline me ...

It is r me!

Headline me!

I killed Hector! I will make Troy in ashes!

fell.

An irreparable loss.

Troy had just taken the best of us ...

and was still standing.

A common word on all lips

Greek soldiers:
give up.

But I refused nearest this sad end.

There was a way to get into Troy.

King Priam ...

Built with the wood of

their ships abandoned ...

Let me go!

It was I who persuaded the Greeks to leave.

Nobody will ever the walls of Troy!

I convinced them to build the horse, and you

offer it as a sign of defeat.

In gratitude, they called me a coward

and left me to beg you.

Powerful Priam, saving my life! And

I'll be your slave!

Any idiot would understand that he is lying!

Laocoon, the soothsayer ...

He will lose!

This man lies as he breathes!

Good king, I swear!

Beware of Greeks and their gifts!

Warning!

It's a sign! Your prophet was

punished for his lies!

You must accept this the Greeks!

Push it to the gates!

Place the rope.

The Greeks!

See, the gods of Heaven and

the Sea! I conquered Troy!

Me, Odysseus!

I am irresistible!

Ulysses, why are you challenging me?

Who are you?

It's me, Poseidon,

For ten years, you played with

us as with toys.

For ten years, you left your

shores drink the blood!

But they are my servants who

have reduced to silence Laocoon

when your horse was doomed.

Now you refuse to thank me.

You forget that men are

nothing without the gods.

For this offense, you

will know suffering.

Headline because of your arrogance, you will be

tossed on the sea for eternity.

- You will never see again Ithaca.

- You can not stop!

You will know pain.

Ulysses!

Look what we have!

Person ...

Victorious, confident, I left Troy.

My thoughts flew to my home

I had not seen for ten years.

You see, Telemachus is easy!

Telemachus?

- Telemachus, where are you?

- You will not catch me!

You have not caught!

Mama, mama, save me!

Mother, mother!

Mother, mother!

Save me!

You, save me!

Telemachus ...

Fields, R tending sheep.

Eumaeus, Telemachus ramne.

Come on boy, come on.

Get out!

It is too early to a man's job.

Because you do not let it grow.

- This is my son, not yours!

- My son was ready nearest everything.

Yes, your son had his father.

It's about time.

It will never be enough time.

Each day passed without Ulysses

seems an eternity.

Yes ...

But ...

If Ulysses is dead ...

it will bear it and move forward.

You must raise a king!

You have a CSUR stone!

Yes!

Ulysses, Ulysses ...

Atonement!

Poseidon did not wait for revenge.

For months, he plunged into the sea mist.

Separated from the rest of the fleet ...

I was lost.

- Antiklos?

- Nothing in sight, the fog!

Antiphus!

Continue, and your flute and you'll

end nearest the sea!

Earth is the earth!

Headline your benches!

- This is not Ithaca.

- Ramez!

If men live here, they will

tell us where we are.

Let others go, master, and join

them if they cross someone.

Sheep or goats.

- And I'll be the first r found.

- Elpenor ...

Amne these for our guests.

- Stay close to the boat.

- And let you go alone, master?

I won! An empty cave ... No

wife, but ... lots of cheese!

It is good!

They keep the sheep in the cave with them.

No tools ...

No weapons.

There are a bunch!

No grain or oil ...

That cheese!

Wine!

We will exchange it against water.

Small nature!

Will you roll like a

barrel when you're drunk!
