HISTORICAL EPIC OF THE ANCIENT ETRUSCANS
Song of the Flutist
Two thousand years before Dante, Michelangelo and the Medici of the Renaissance,
the extraordinary Etruscans civilized central Italy.
- 3 generations of the ambitious Porenna-Laris clan
- 2 powerful rival cities threaten to tear apart this noble family
- 1 mysterious Flutist guides
their journey to the afterlife.
Meanwhile,
The Great Prediction heralds doom.
Amidst pestilence, tyranny, deceit and murder,
sophisticated Etruria prospers. Magnificent temples,
sumptuous dwellings and roads with arched bridges
dot the land. Men revere women. Women own
property. Couples eat together at banquets wearing
fashionable tunics and stylish leather shoes, while the
rest of the cosmos goes barefoot. Wealth, wisdom
and artistic beauty abound. Opulent tombs provide
for eternal contentment. Praise the gods! Glory to the
Etruscans!
