The Story of Eclipse
Set in Ancient Greece, Eclipse tells the story of a young,
timid man named Aristocles, and his unexpected rise to the throne of Sparta.
As Aristocles struggles to arrive at a definitive conclusion of personal identity,
we are shown his relationship with two young ladies: Acacia, the only living member
of the past royal family, is a gloomy invalid, with whom Aritocles has been taken
since a very young age; and Melody, who is the kind, impassioned wife of an active
revolutionary opposing the monarchical system. As the story unfolds, we learn more
about the essences of these three characters, as they grow to learn these very essences
about themselves. Eclipse is a story of love, of dreams, and of the question of fate.
Yet through loss, tragedy and uncertainty, the underlying message remains:
"The sun is always shining, you just can't always see it."
