In the Polish epic PHARAOH, the end of the 20th Egyptian dynasty sees the empire showing signs of deterioration. In the east, the Assyrians are rapidly expanding their empire, which threatens both Phoenicia and Israel. Meanwhile, the power behind the throne of Pharoah Rameses XII lies with the select body of the priests. These worshippers of the gods Amon and Osiris jealously fight to guard their positions of influence as rulers of Egypt. However, the young, rash prince Rameses (Jerzy Zelnik), heir to the throne and commander of the armies, sees the solution to Egypt's problems in open confrontation with Assyria, and sets himself against the priests in order to begin a war.
