A young intellectual named Pier Paolo learns from Margherita, his colleague and poetess, that he has been appointed "Master of Holy Week" by the municipality. After meeting Giovanni, a beautiful homeless boy, Pier Paolo begins his surreal journey through bucolic and popular scenery, typical of the South, which becomes a mirror of his soul. He will fight, thus, against the incarnations of desire in order to find his own spirituality.

An enigmatic, fluid actor embodies a mythical figure tied to Virgil's egg, blurring reality and fiction as he recreates a film about his own life, an homage to Patroni Griffi's Il Mare. Through encounters, passions, and visions evoking ancient cults and legends, the work becomes a sensual, unsettling tribute to Naples and its magical-literary heritage.
