Presented as the first four‑segment film, this anthology links four comic moral tales exposing sexual hypocrisy in 1960s Italy. One depicts young love tangled in city office politics; another a vintage milk ad haunting a prudish elder; a third shows a trophy wife coping with her husband's affairs; the final story follows a lucky ticket‑holder at a provincial fair.
