Sinopse

In the shadow of the Roman Empire, a bitter feud erupts between genuine artists and talentless hacks desperate for fame. Vain, arrogant writers plot to destroy the reputations of true poets, leading to a hilarious trial of literary merit. The battleground is paved with bad poetry, vicious slander, and absurd theatrical posturing. This sharp, defensive comedy fiercely defends the honor of true literature against the assault of mediocrity. It remains a spirited and highly entertaining defense of artistic integrity.
