Pour reprendre le royaume de Thessalie des mains de son oncle, Jason doit voler la Toison d'or aux Colches barbares, pour qui la grande prêtresse Médée appartient à la royauté. Médée, éprise de Jason, l'aide dans sa quête, puis rentre avec lui en Thessalie. Mais abandonnée, elle cherche à se venger.
The first half sums up the story of Jason and the Argonauts as they travel to Medea's foreign land in search of the golden fleece. In fitting with the soundtrack (which features Iranian classic music, Japanese traditional music and other folklore pieces), Pasolini depicts Medea's people as a tribal people who perform rituals and sacrifices to secure their harvests. Their costumes and dances are based on those of Eastern European Mummers such as the Romanian Calusari ceremonies and their counterparts in the Balkans.
Il giovane Giasone sposa la maga Medea, la quale gli darà due figli e subirà il ripudio del marito per sposare la giovane Glauce, figlia del re di Corinto. La vendetta di Medea, folle di gelosia, sarà atroce.
