Piero C. (Piero Chiambretti) has an unusual knack for meeting beautiful women -- which, in this comedy, turns out to be more of a curse than a blessing. As we first meet Piero, he's just been given his walking papers by his beautiful girlfriend (Vanessa Asbert), and a close friend (Gretha Cavazzoni), who also happens to be a gorgeous woman, stops by to cheer him up, though it's obvious she has no romantic intentions in mind. As Piero tells his long, sad story, it seems that as far back as he can remember, he's been a magnet for lovely women -- but they have the bad habit of either leaving him or deciding they'd rather be "friends," even after he becomes the host of a popular dating show on television. Ogni Lasciato e Perso marked the big screen debut for Piero Chiambretti, a popular comic on Italian television; he also directed the film and co-wrote the screenplay.
