12/22

Poinsettia Girl is set in 1710 Venice in the Ospedale de la Pieta - an orphanage for girls who have musical talent.

We follow the main character Agata as she is accompanied by Vivaldi to the orphanage and how she ascends into one of the highest levels the singers can reach. Agata is a real person whose original name was Agata Farusi.

A glimpse into the life in Venice at that time.  4/5
