Androcles is an escaped slave who is on the run from his Roman captors. While hiding in the forest he comes upon a wild lion, who, instead of attacking him, approaches him with a wounded paw. Seeing the lion in pain, he removes a huge thorn from the beastโ€™s paw, creating a friend for life. Androcles is eventually recaptured and sentenced to be thrown to the lions in the arena. But amongst the pack of lions is one who remembers the painful thornโ€ฆ
