When Herodias divorces her husband and marries his brother Herod Antipas, governor of Judea, the prophet John the Baptist protests and is imprisoned. Salome, daughter of Herodias and both niece and step-daughter to Herod dances seductively and wins the prize of anything she asks of Herod. The prize she asks is the head of John the Baptist.
