Short description
The life of Parthenope - neither siren nor myth - from her birth in 1950 to the present day. Her long existence embodies the full repertoire of human existence: youth's lightheartedness and its demise, classical beauty and its inexorable permutations, pointless and impossible loves, stale flirtations and dizzying passion, nighttime kisses on Capri, flashes of joy and persistent suffering, real and invented fathers, endings and new beginnings.
What's left behind the scenes
- The film's runtime in Russian distribution is 127 minutes.
- In Greek mythology, Parthenope is a siren who took her own life when she failed to charm Odysseus. Her body was washed ashore in the place where Castel dell'Ovo now stands. This is a medieval fortress on an island in the Tyrrhenian Sea, connected to Naples by a narrow isthmus.
- The end credits state that the film is dedicated to the memory of Luca Canfora. The body of the costume designer Canfora was found at sea near Capri on the morning of September 1, 2023, a few days before work on the film was completed. The cause of death was never determined. Canfora was 51 years old. He had worked repeatedly with film director Paolo Sorrentino, for example, on the Italian-French drama “The Great Beauty” (2013) or the mini-series “The Young Pope” (2016).
