A real friend is a companion for your heart. Godlike Gilgamesh, King of Uruk, has built a beautiful city, but is also a terrible tyrant.

They embark on adventures together, but when they - together - kill the Bull of Heaven, Enkidu must pay the ultimate price. In his grief and fear of his own death, Gilgamesh goes on a journey to discover the secret to immortality ...
