Oedipe, héros de la mythologie grecque qui se creva les yeux après avoir accompli la prophétie annoncée par l’oracle : tuer son père puis épouser sa mère.
Deux mille cinq cent ans plus tard : et si l’oracle n’avait rien compris ?

Oedipus was a mythical Greek king of Thebes. He blinded himself after having fulfilled a prophecy saying he would kill his father and marry his mother.
Two thousand years later : what if the oracle completely missed the point?
