For the 20^th anniversary of the release of the film The Prince of Egypt produced by DreamWorks, an entirely restored copy of this Oscar-winning film will be screened in Annecy. Released in December 1998 and directed by Brenda Chapman, Steve Hickner and Simon Wells, the film tells the story of two brothers, both of whom are princes in the largest empire on Earth: Egypt. When their kinship built on a lie is revealed to them, with everything separating them in terms of faith, their past and future, it will bring about the fall of a dynasty.
