Quando Osiride, dio che vigila sul popolo del Nilo, decide di lasciare il regno nelle mani del figlio Horus, il fratello Set usurpa il trono con la forza, uccidendo il padre e accecando il legittimo erede. Sfuggendo al crudele dominio di Set, un mortale, il ladro Bek, cerca la prigione di Horus per liberare il dio e liberare così la sua amata e il popolo d'Egitto.
