A two part fantasy fairy tale about love, identity, and the barriers between people that we have to learn to overcome.

Good King Hamil and his wife can’t have children. But thanks to the magical powers of Gamesh, a son is finally born. Unfortunately the great magician Epos disapproves and switches the king’s new son with Mirabella, the daughter of a poor farmer. In the meantime, his real son grows up in the poor farmer’s house, together with another boy, who he thinks of as his brother. Still worse, neither Gamesh nor Epos knows which of the two boys is the son of the king, or the son of the poor farmer.
