It is the debut film of Renato Pozzetto, and for his performance he won a Silver Ribbon for Best New Actor. [2]
The young Orlando feels like he is still a child, terrorized by the outside world, and stuck in relations with girls. He has an obsessive attraction for a beautiful and still young mother. Anything regarding a normal man of his age is unknown to Orlando; particularly sex. One day, he rescues Ofelia, a former prostitute in love with him who will solve his problem.
