ViolettA VAléry hAS A Different exiStence froM the one reveAleD behinD the Mirror,
a life composed by her own dreams. A divine spell brings Traviata and her thoughts to become visible behind a mirror of reality. No present will ever be adequate to one of a dream, and knowing the dream is challenge, the recovering of a forgotten language, a merciless eternal return.
At this point the dream becomes reality, and perhaps it hides an unexpected end.
