Chiara is an actress, the daughter of Marcello Mastroianni and Catherine Deneuve. One particularly difficult summer, she decides to revive her father through her self: she dresses like him, talks like him, breathes like him, with such strength that those around her begin to believe it and to call her "Marcello".
