Actor: Giancarlo Giannini

Italy in the 1930’s. A young anarchist “Tunino” (a role which won Giancarlo Giannini top acting award in Cannes) is sent to assassinate Mussolini. Tunino’s contact in Rome is a lively flapper who arranges for the young man to stay at a brothel while preparing the assassination. However, a few days in the company of lovely young prostitutes can be very distracting and love and politics do not always mix well…

Mimí, forced to leave his family in Sicily, finds a job in a factory in Turin, where he gets involved in an extramarital affair.
