Parthenope, born in the sea near Naples in 1950, is beautiful, enigmatic, and intelligent. She is shamelessly courted by many. However, beauty comes at a cost.
“It’s a moving artistic quest, as a filmmaker explores, through the tale of one woman finding her inner life — both beyond her beauty, and through it — the reasons he wields his camera in the first place: in pursuit of transformative truths about the way we see the world, and ourselves, best unveiled through aesthetic discovery.” ~ Siddhant Adlakha, Variety
