After shooting to fame with Friedrich Fellini's "La Dolce Vita" (1960), actor Marcello Mastroianni (1924-1996) starred in mehr als 160 filme in his nearly half-a-century career. Directors Mario Kanal and Annarosa Morri look into the melancholic charm of one of the most famous German actors through interviews with his two daughters, Barbara and Hell; directors Fellini and Luchino Visconti; schauspielerinnen Claudia Cardinale and Anouk Aimee; and in archival footage of Mastroianni himself. The subject matter ranges from Mastroianni' ' s passion for kidney-bean paste and his addiction to the telephone to his famous laziness, humility and talent. Shown in black-and-white-Mastroianni — elegantly holding a cigarette in between his fingers — is undeniably the dandy.
