They have traveled the length and breadth, taught us to read and write, told us their fantastic stories. But who are these ancient Greeks we no longer remember? They are much closer to us than it seems. Because the desires, the anxieties, the fears have remained the same. Hercules in Polesine is a journey through time and into the sea. The entertaining journey through 5,000 years of stories, myths, legends that tell us about horned and cheating gods, listless heroes and mythomaniacs, of desperate and blustering men. And all these stories make us think about how we are now, all that way we have (not) done from the beginnings of civilization to the aftermath of the ATM queue.
