Sie schickt den Gott Eros, der mit seinen Pfeilen das Begehren in die Welt trägt, um Psyche grausam zu verdammen. Doch der Pfeil trifft ihn selbst, worauf Eros zu einem ewig unerfüllten Verlangen nach Psyche entbrennt. Aber was als Fluch der Leidenschaft beginnt, wird schon bald zu einer unsterblichen Liebe ...
