The dream of eternal beauty, art as a common thread of history and human restlessness. The vitality of a woman determines the course of events over the centuries.
In the years between WWI and the rise of Fascism, legendary thespian Eleonora Duse shocks everyone by getting back onstage at over 60 years of age.
