Angela and Paola are preparing a play loosely based on The Odyssey. Angela plays the role of Ulysses and Paola plays his lover, who has summoned him from the dead for a final meeting. When the play intersects with the young women’s lives a rupture occurs. Transported, they reinvent themselves through new identities and the open space of the rehearsal stage. Calypso navigates between individual desire and collective unconscious, reclaiming mythology from its normative foundations.
