This satirical comedy recounts a tale of love across class boundaries; the twist is that here a middle-class juror, Gabriella Sansoni (Claudia Cardinale), learns about love from the testimony of Tina Candela (Monica Vitti), a woman on trial for murder. It seems that Tina has found ecstasy in a masochistic fashion by being slapped around by her beloved husband Gino (Giancarlo Giannini). She is so persuasive in this regard that Gabriella lays out a plan to receive similar treatment from her man, Andrea (Vittorio Gassman). ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

Young Orlando (Renato Pozzetto) hasn't a clue what to do with himself or his romantic aspirations. Even though he is the heir to an industrial tycoon and has achieved the age of manhood, he cannot seem to come to grips with the opposite sex.
