Synopsis : Parthenope follows the journey of a woman named Parthenope, born in the sea of Naples in 1950, as she seeks happiness during her long summers of youth. Enchanted by her home city, she navigates its vibrant landscape and forms connections with its memorable characters. The narrative blurs the lines between reality and myth, questioning whether Parthenope embodies the qualities of a siren or merely a figment of the city's rich lore. Through her experiences, the story captures the essence of love, identity, and the quest for fulfillment in a city steeped in history and magic.
