Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
Maddalena (Catherine Spaak) masquerades as a heroic male named Teodoro and joins the army to gain insight on men in this costumed comedy satire. She falls for an officer (Tomas Milian) but he is naturally unable to act on his impulses because he believes she is a man. Other men also make passes at her in hopes she is really the man she claims to be. The situation allows for plenty of sight gags and situation comedy from the battlefield to the bedroom.
