Plot
Corrado is a teenager who lives with his mother Maria who has been totally dedicated to him since her husband's death. The boy invites Stefano, an archaeologist, to his house, who immediately falls in love with the woman. Maria begins to flourish again but her son, exaggeratedly jealous, tries to stop this story in the bud and at the same time ruins his first love affair with Carla. It will be Maria who will help Corrado to win back the girl; in turn Corrado will call Stefano back, allowing him to be next to his mother.[1]
