Parthenope Parthenope
Born in the 1950s in the sea in front of her home villa, Parthenope seeks happiness in the long summers of her youth and falls in love with her native Naples and its many picturesque characters. Paolo Sorrentino has created a seductive epic about a modern heroine’s journey beyond “great beauty” and “youth”.
