Twin tiger cubs, snatched from a native jungle, are shipped to Rome, where they are cruelly separated. One cub is destined to be Princess Aurelia's pampered pet, and the other is bound for the Colosseum, to become a star performer in the gladiator's circus. In a world dominated by Caeser's will, can anyone win their freedom?
