Clodia - Fragmenta plot

This is the story of Clodia, a Roman aristocrat. Her story was immortalized by the poet Catullo; presenting her in his poems as his lover, Lesbia. Clodia had an incestuous, passionate relationship with her brother. Both indulged in the sin of excess and were pawns in the tragic game that is life and fate. Clodia, who was a dazzling beauty, could not resist the call of Rome. Her beauty was her pass. There she stayed with two sisters, who introduced her to all kinds of events and festivals. But one day, the young poet Catullo is murdered by Milo's men. Clodia feels the joy draining from her and she sees no reason for her existence anymore. Eventually she sinks so low that she prostitutes herself and lures customers everywhere: on the streets, in parks and taverns, only to be murdered by one of her customers.
