Summary

Ravana, the Demon King of Lanka, has covered the earth with darkness. He needs to be stopped -- but who can take on the task? Enter Prince Rama, his courageous wife Princess Sita, and his loyal brother Prince Lakshmana. These three are determined to restore peace and justice, but their plans take an unexpected turn when Ravana kidnaps Sita. Only with the help of Hanuman, God of the Winds, Jatayu, King of the Birds, and many other fearless friends can Prince Rama and his companions defend Ravana. Many will lose their lives in the this struggle, and everyone will be tested to the limits of their endurance.
