In Boccaccio's The Decameron, a group of young people fleeing the Black Death tell increasingly wild, hilarious, debaucherous and moving tales to keep hope alive. In this version, Dartmouth students in a dystopian future mash up music, dance and their own interpretations of the original text, rewriting the canon as they explore questions of translation, censorship and storytelling as a means of survival.
