Description
Banished by the Emperor Augustus, the great poet Ovid was to die in exile. Years after Ovid's death, Marcus Corvinus, grandson of the poet's patron, tries to arrange for the return of his ashes to Rome for burial. When official permission is refused, Corvinus makes the dangerous mistake of asking why the Emperor has forbidden it.
