An anthology presents three storylines, all set in the Italian town of Treviso: A husband pretends to be impotent as a cover for having an affair; a bank clerk abandons his wife for his mistress, but the rest of the town's husbands become jealous and unite to conspire against them; and local men all seduce a promiscuous young woman, but when her father eventually reveals that she is underage, they all face prosecution for statutory rape.
A darkly comedic, episodic look at Italian mores and marital woes. It's witty, a bit bawdy, and offers a charmingly cynical glimpse into human nature and desire in mid-century Treviso.
