Set in Provence at three different critical moments of Western civilization. 'The Dream of Scipio' follows the fortunes of three men: Manlius Hippomanes, a Gallic aristocrat obsessed with the preservation of Roman civilization, Olivier de Noyen, a poet, and Julien Barneuve, an intellectual who joins the Vichy government. The stories are linked by each man's love for an extraordinary woman.
