About Sceneggiata Napoletana
A poor fisherman, who, in a dream, is instructed by San Gennaro to play the lottery. After loosing all his savings, in order to pay back the loan taken from a tightfisted usurian, he has no other choice, but to ask his wife to offer up her body as payment and face the humiliating consequences.
Directed by Mario Salieri, Sceneggiata Napoletana leans on a strong ensemble — Selen, Barbie Est, Emma Rush — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 1994.
