Apulia, inicios de la posguerra: Giordano Ricci (Antonio Albanese) es un hombretón con barba hirsuta que se dedica a levantar campos de minas en Torre Canne.

La vida de Giordano cambia de repente con la llegada de una carta desde Bolonia. El remitente es su cuñada Liliana (Katia Ricciarelli), viuda de su hermano desde hace pocos meses, y a la que él amó en secreto durante la adolescencia. Giordano, feliz, no evita invitarla a la gran masería de Torre Canne suscitando las iras de sus tías. Nino (Neri Marcorè), el joven y espabilado hijo de Liliana, y ella misma salen así hacia Apulia con un coche robado. El cariño de Liliana por Giordano, por ese hombre tan bueno, crece con el tiempo... (FILMAFFINITY)

Antiquario (segment "Consegna a domicilio")
Very rare Italian horror anthology from 1994, starring amongst many others, Asia Argento. This Italian movie is an anthology based with no linking material, only that all of the stories have a horror/suspense/surreal theme. The stories are diverse, ranging from routine stories with twist-endings to social satire. The directing styles are equally as eclectic - compare the frenetic Peter Jackson-style opening segment, Our Guys Are Coming to the surrealistic, dreamlike qualities of Outlook.
