The Worker and the Hairdresser in a Whirlwind of Sex and Politics

Directed by Lina Wertmüller

With Tullio Solenghi, Veronica Pivetti, Piera Degli Esposti, Cinzia Leone and Gene Gnocchi

During the 1994 general elections, a mechanic with a firm belief in communism, fearing that his party is about to lose, journeys to a northern village to instigate. He isn't there long before he encounters a beautiful hairdresser, with whom their debate is fiery as is his growing and impossible-to-hide passion for her. Although she too is intrigued with him, their disparate ideologies threaten to keep them apart.
