Onesimus, a slave, runs away from his owner, Philemon. He thinks he has freedom, but instead discovers the truth of the “wage slave“ in a Roman warehouse. Coming to his senses after meeting the Apostle Paul, Onesimus returns to Philemon, where a beautiful slave girl, Catia, has been waiting for him to come back. Philemon has a mission for Onesimus and Catia...all the while avoiding anti-Christian Emperor Nero's attempts to capture and kill them.
