The title of this movie refers to a typical Neapolitan shell-game in which a package of valuable merchandise is switched for something worthless while a brief diversion is used as a cover. This comic anthology is a survival guide to the mad, sometimes joyful anarchy of this ill-managed town, told in ten separate episodes. In one of the funniest, a woman swindled out of her apartment by a phony medium successfully uses his own superstitious belief that there are real mediums somewhere to get her apartment back.
