This story is built upon three narrative layers in dialogue with one another.The dimension of memory, embodied by archaeological artifacts submerged in the depths of the sea.The present, represented by real people living on the island of Capri.The participants in a shamanic trance-dance ritual, who bridge these two dimensions by transcending the limits of identity, time, and social beliefs.The story tells of the footballer, the bartender, and the shop assistant take on the guise of the ancient, while the ancient recognizes itself in its own contemporary embodiment among ordinary people.
