Paola, a Rome call girl, returns home to her village in an attempt to go straight. Rejected by her father, blackmailed by a former lover, and lusted after by her brother-in-law, she turns to her beloved sister for support.
Count Alberto has lost his wealth at the gaming table, he wants to commit suicide but is stopped by a doctor who offers him an exchange, a week of life with how much money he wants and then be a guinea pig for a new drug (and maybe die).
Rather than renouncing his artistic dreams and working in his father's company, a young man, who is vocally equipped, is content to perform at street corners. This allows him to know and fall in love with a beautiful blind girl.
