Darkly humorous tale of emotionally unbalanced siblings (Michel Piccoli, Anouk Aimee) caught in a love-hate relationship. Marilena: Anna Orso. Sciabola: Michele Placido. Quasimodo: Antonio Plovanelli. Anna: Gisella Burinato.

Michel Piccoli is a magistrate whose sister Anouk Aimee is mentally ill. He uses his friend Michele Placido in an attempt to drive Aimee to suicide, but the plot goes awry. Despite the seemingly unfunny ideas in the plot, this is a good comedy that shows genuine compassion for the characters.
