A Poem and a Mistake

The film follows graduate student Myrrha as she confronts her professor's interpretation of Ovid's Metamorphoses. Her push for a deeper understanding leads to an unexpected transformation where her professor becomes a mirror version of herself. This twist serves as a catalyst for exploring complex themes related to her past experiences.

As Myrrha reflects on her relationships with music, sex, and the impact of sexual violence, her professor finds himself immersed in the stories of Ovid. This interplay between personal and literary narratives allows for a thought-provoking examination of identity and understanding in a contemporary context. A Poem and a Mistake offers a fresh take on classic themes, making it a significant entry in modern drama.
