The Seven Labors of Esfandiar

Season 1

Goshtasb, the king of Iran, returns from a great battle and discovers that Arjasp, the king of Turan, has used the Iranians’ inclination toward the Good Religion and monotheism as a pretext to invade Iran in his absence, devastating the land and its people, and taking his daughters, Homay and Be Afrid, captive. Goshtasb frees Esfandiar from his chains, and Esfandiar chooses to undertake the passage through seven perilous and fearsome trials to rescue his captive sisters.
