It's 1938 and Rome comes to a standstill as Hitler visits Mussolini for the first time.
Antonietta (Sophia Loren) is left in her tenement home whilst her fascist husband and the rest of her family leave to attend the historic event. The whole building is empty apart from one man, Gabriele (Marcello Mastroianni), a radio announcer sacked because of his homosexuality and his political views.
Unaware of this Antonietta flirts with Gabriele as they meet by chance in the empty building. They strike up a conversation and the rather naive housewife is surprised by his opinions and shocked when she finally realises his sexual orientation.
As the day progresses they develop a very special relationship that will radically alter both their outlooks on life forever...
