The Egyptian myth of the death of Osiris - Alex Gendler

2020 • E81    Jul 16, 2020    4m
Long jealous of his older brother Osiris, the god who ruled all of Egypt, the warrior god Set plotted to overthrow him. Hosting an extravagant party as a ruse, Set announced a game— whoever could fit perfectly in a wooden chest could have it as a gift. But the chest was a coffin, trapping Osiris inside. Will his sisters be able to find and free him? Alex Gendler details the myth of Osiris.

Lesson by Alex Gendler, directed by Keegan Thornhill.
