"Anatomia" is a modernized version of the legendary Sappho of Lesvos and her complicated relationship with her female lover Atthis. This story has been told in myth and folklore for thousands of years. Though Sappho and Atthis live in relative peace in a home full of love, their petty insecurities soon begin to tear at their relationship. Coming in to take advantage of these issues is the murderous neighbor, Sinis, a vile man who has assaulted and killed nearly twenty innocent women in his own apartment. The paths of these flawed and vulnerable characters soon cross and can only end in unspeakable acts of tragedy. Sometimes love, no matter how pure and true, cannot stop the world around it from complete destruction. This is the tragic story of Sappho and Atthis. This is "Anatomia".
