The second feature from writer/director Marco Ponti is a zealous and wildly entertaining comedy about fate, starring two bright young talents, Libero de Rienzo and the beautiful Vanessa Incontrada (The heart elsewhere).
Dante (De Rienzo) sick of his dreary existence takes off abroad with the hope of never returning - on money ‘borrowed’ from the Mob. Nina (Incontrada) an under-appreciated air hostess, inadvertently stranded in Dante’s city a few days from Christmas, with nowhere to stay, is offered Dante’s empty apartment by one of his friends.
When Dante unexpectedly returns home and slips into bed, Nina is in it! Their spontaneous romance must contend with the ‘small’ problem of paying back the Mob’s money. Just how they, together with Dante’s good friends, manage that feat provides the fast-paced and hilarious conclusion to this crazy tale. |
