The Prince of Egypt

In ancient Egypt, a woman can no longer care for her infant son Moses and gives him up to the forces of the River Nile. Carried a long distance, the basket drifts into the arms of the beautiful Queen. She and her husband, the powerful leader Pharoah Seti, raise him and their real son Rameses as brothers - never revealing the truth to anyone. When Seti dies, the elder son Rameses is his successor and bears the heavy weight of his father's crown.
