SYNOPSIS DVD movie:
THE PRINCE OF EGYPT

This is the extraordinary tale of two brothers, one born of royal blood, one an orphan with a secret past. Growing up the best of friends, they share a strong bond of free-spirited youth and good-natured rivalry. But the truth will ultimately set them at odds, as one becomes the ruler of the most powerful empire on earth, the other the chosen leader of his people. Their final confrontation will forever change their lives - and the world.

An animated version of the life of Moses as described in the Old Testament's Book of Exodus. The story centers upon the the destiny of two brothers--one born a prince, the other born a slave. Only one will emerge as a leader and as a liberator, fighting to free Hebrew slaves employed by his father, the Pharaoh, and finally realizing his mission as a savior. This was the first film that the newly-formed DreamWorks SKG studio -owned by Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen- said they were committed to making.
