Profumo di donna

Fausto, a blind, aggressive and irascible captain, is having a trip from Turin to Naples to meet an old comrade. He is assigned an aid whom Fausto would nickname Ciccio to travel with him. The captain would ask his cadet to help him look for women, but feeling the boy’s inexperience in the matter, Fausto uses his nose claiming he can smell a beautiful woman. That is until Sara, a former lover, shows up.
