Synopsis
One winter afternoon Lorella and Marco begin to talk about women, about their role in society. Marco sees a strong influence in television, Lorella disagrees with this clichè. She argues that TV has been around for 50 years and that the public should be mature and responsible by now. A challenge begins to find out if TV is really to blame. If TV is a tool of the mass media, what images does it project? What model does it offer? What does it tell us? So the investigation begins, a journey through the images we see on our screens every day.
