This is the story of three blameless lives that are destroyed by calumny. Negroni deftly portrays the lethal buzz of a high society salon in which an ambiguous piece of gossip arises, destined to grow increasingly cruel. For Bertini, collective praise: “Ideally beautiful, very good, fantastic”, “Commendable”, “By now listed among the best artists, she plays her role with great skill and passion”.
