WARNING !

povray I/O restriction are not managed by the system, but by povray
itself. Being run as root does not change that mechanism. (at
best/worst, it might change the accessibility of files & folder for the
program, but it won't stop povray from denying the access)

If Warp's answer is useful (having a symlink in the local directory),
then you have to learn how to get the right behavior from I/O
restrictions in the config file of povray.
