The devoted wife of Jason, and a brave adventurer with his Argonauts, Medea was also a loving mother and a loyal friend of Herakles.
And yet, legend says she murdered her own children in revenge, to spite the faithless Jason.
But love in Ancient Greece was always a dangerous game; and legends are not always what they seem.
Medea was a woman both betrayer and betrayed, and her real story is strange, sensual and heroic.
