Surreal Italian comedy-drama. After ending up in a scenic Sicilian town while trying to avoid his daughter's impending wedding to a devout Catholic, a famous film director becomes inexorably and surreally involved in the nuptials of another beautiful bride-to-be.

Though he tries to keep a low profile, director Franco Elica soon catches the attention of the bankrupt Prince of Gravina, who cordially invites him to attend his daughter Bona's upcoming wedding. As it turns out, Bona was to appear in the director's latest film, a cinematic adaptation of the Italian literary classic The Bethrothed. In the time leading up to the wedding, the smitten filmmaker develops a deep longing for the lovely Bona and commences to do everything in his power to sabotage her marriage to a wealthy lawyer.
