| Synopsis |
| Franco
Danieli, a student, meets a young
starlet, Nadia, while buying a present
for his mother in a store. Nadia,
who seems to like him, invites him
to her house. Franco falls in love
with her and although he had always
been a good son and student, he now
starts to neglect his studies and
also Marisa, a fellow student who
loves him dearly. But the happiness
of his newfound love is of short
duration: To Nadia, the realtionship
to Franco is just a little flirt.
She has a rich and mature boyfriend
and protector, who allows her to
live a life in comfort and luxury.
She will not end this profitable
relationship and makes it clear to
Franco. It's a big blow to him. He
wants to win Nadia's love at any
price and therefore steals money
from his father's company. As he
arrives in Nadia's apartment with
the stolen money, her older lover
surprises them and throws him out
of the house. Nadia's only worry
is to make up with her rich protector.
Disheartened and tormented by remorse
for the theft he committed, Franco
decides to kill himself. He writes
a letter to his mother in which he
explains the reasons of his tragic
decision and gives the letter to
Marisa. She reads the letter and
makes a plan with his mother to stop
him: With the proceeds of the sale
of family jewels and a ring of Marisa,
the stolen money can be replaced
without being noticed missing. This
resolves the crisis, Franco returns
home to his old ways and returns
Marisa's love. |
