Giulio Cesare Castello

The story of a young man who meets his own likeness and uses him to fulfill his dreams.

Five short stories with contemporary settings. In New York, people are indifferent to derelicts sleeping on sidewalks, to a woman's assault in front of an apartment building, and to a couple injured in a car crash. A man, stripped of his identity, dies in bed with actors expressing his agony. A cheerful, innocent young man walking a city street in a time of war pays a price for this innocence. A couple talks about cinema while it watches another couple talk of love and truth on the eve of one character's return to Cuba. Striking students take over a university classroom; an argument follows about revolution or incremental change.

The film is divided into four episodes that blends sex and comedy.

Viviana and Giovanni Renzelli are a married couple living in Turin. He works as a switchboard operator for a large plumbing supplies company. Suddenly, the couple’s life changes when Giovanni hits the jackpot on the Totocalcio, winning 850 million lire.
