Le Gladiatrici. Fotografie di scena by Giancarlo Casnati
From a marble bas-relief of the second century after Christ, preserved in the British Museum, the gladiators Amazon and Akillia come back to life: their lives are thrown to the public, blinded by the rigged bets of the deadly arena. This is the enemy to beat, which the two girls defeat by simulating a fierce duel, where neither is able to prevail.
