Achilles, just slain in the Trojan War, arrives in the Underworld and is greeted by Sibyl of Cumae— a prophetess and also the realm’s local guide. Though it gets a bad rap, Sibyl is determined to prove to the newcomer that hell is actually a lovely place to live; bursting with historic charm and eccentric neighbors. Iseult Gillespie takes a tour of the Underworld and its most infamous inhabitants. [Directed by Arvind Singh Jeena, Nikhita Prabhudesai Jeena, Totem Creative, narrated by Alexandra Panzer, music by Jarrett Farkas].
