Andrea Damiani sends his wife Valeria off on a skiing holiday so he can spend time with his demanding mistress, Giulia.

A dizzying whirl of mistaken identities and illicit rendezvous. Expect escalating chaos and outrageous situations as lovers and spouses hilariously cross paths on what should have been a simple holiday.
