Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Based on a supposed screenplay by Fellini that fell out of a window, Arbore tells the southern story of a shaggy-haired Neapolitan girl, a toilet attendant, who arrives in the foggy north to become a singer, and whom he becomes her boorish manager.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
