Three young courtesans who really existed are the protagonists of a narration that spans the centuries, from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, as sensual incarnations of the drama that divides sacred love from profane love. Among the golden drapes of an imaginative Venice, the stories of three beautiful girls are told, locked up in the eternal game of glances that makes sin a virtue and aspiration desire. Sweet and mischievous, they move in the limbo of opulent interiors to tell an intimacy far from the characters made known by the story.
