RITE OF EXILE: Part III Silent Scent (or On Virtue)
I asked: “O Master, what so grievous is
To these, that make them lament so sore?”
He answered: “I will tell thee very briefly.
These have no longer any hope of death;
And this blind life of theirs is so debased,
They envious are of every other fate.”
- Dante Alighieri, Inferno, Canto III
A family stranded on the shores of inferno recollect their memories of a lost innocence. Under the prying eyes of the Fates two brothers, father and son, mother and daughter seek their lost virtues.
Nine acts see them tumble down a vertiginous circus of the abyss.
