Storia
On their honeymoon on the island of Lesbos, Sappho Lovell and her artist husband Phil encounter Helene, the daughter of a Russian archaeologist. Sappho becomes drawn to Helene and eventually falls in love with her, despite being married to Phil. The three engage in a complex sexual triangle as Sappho also begins to believe she is the reincarnation of the ancient poetess Sappho, who first gave Lesbos its name.
Riassunto
Sappho is a provocative and passionate love story set in the 1920s on the Greek island of Lesbos. The film explores themes of identity, desire, and reincarnation as Sappho Lovell, the daughter of a millionaire, arrives with her husband Phil for their honeymoon. There, she meets Helene and becomes involved in a complex love triangle. Inspired by the poems of Sappho, this Ukrainian drama delves into the legendary poetess's influence on Lesbos and its people.
