Set in Rome’s Via Margutta, the film follows a group of bohemian artists and a gay gallery owner as they contend with ambition, envy and the search for recognition. Painter Stefano devotes himself to his work, shunning self‑promotion, while many of his peers excel at marketing a persona rather than creating art, highlighting the clash between creativity and commercial pressure.
