Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
This Italian comedy examines the emotional and sexual dynamics of several troubled couples. The stage is set at an aged Italian rural villa. Luca and Mara's two girls are making their first Communion, and many relatives have come to watch. Family trouble brews. Luca is planning to leave Mara and the kids for a sexy actress. Mara does not want him to go. Mara's two fluff-headed sisters are also in turmoil. Sister Claudia is involved with a married guy, while Giusy's hypochondria is destroying her love life. Maurizio and Serena, Luca's nymphomaniacal sister, are the only happy couple in the story.
