An Imaginary Life

In the first century AD, Publius Ovidius Naso, the most urbane and irreverant poet of imperial Rome, was banished to a remote village on the edge of the Black Sea. Marooned on the edge of the known world, exiled from his native tongue, Ovid depends on the kindness of barbarians who impate their dead and converse with the spirit world.

In secolul I d.Hr., Publius Ovidius Naso, cel mai urban si ireverentios poet al Romei imperiale, a fost exilat intr-un sat indepartat de la malul Marii Negre. Izolat la marginea lumii cunoscute, exilat din limba sa materna, Ovidiu depinde de bunatatea barbarilor care isi indura mortii si converseaza cu lumea spiritelor.
