Alexandria, 391 AD: Hypatia teaches astronomy, mathematics, and philosophy. Her student Orestes is in love with her, as is Davus, her peronal slave. As the city's Christian, led by Ammonius and Cyril, gain political power, the intitution of learning may crumble along with the governance of slavery. Jump ahead 20 year: Orestes, the city's prefect, has an uneasy peace with Christian, led by Cyril. A group from the newly empowered Christian has now taken to enforce their cultural hegemony zealously; firt they see the Jews as their obstacle, then nonbeliever. Hypatia has no interest in faith; she's concerned about the movement of celestial bodies and "the brotherhood of all". Although her former slave doesn't see it that way.
