Young Orlando (Renato Pozzetto) hasn't a clue what to do with himself or his romantic aspirations. Even though he is the heir to an industrial tycoon and has achieved the age of manhood, he cannot seem to come to grips with the opposite sex. Perhaps his romantic obsession with his mother (Françoise Fabian) has something to do with it. In this Italian comedy, everything is sorted out when the boy's mother eventually remarries.
