This hysterical modern adaptation of Goldoni's classic comedy finds Clarice's dreams of marrying her true love shattered when the man she was originally promised to, Federigo Rasponi, seemingly returns from the dead. Unbeknownst to anyone, Federigo is really his sister, Beatrice, in disguise, determined to settle her brother's debts and find her love, Florindo, who fled after her brother was killed. Beatrice's plans work perfectly at first -- until her sneaky servant Truffaldino also takes Florindo on as his master in a scheme to make extra money.
