Two soldiers travel across Italy at the height of summer, passing through Genoa,
Rome and Naples. One of the soldiers is blind, graceful, gleefully vicious and
wears a prosthetic arm; the other, twenty years his junior, is his guide. But as
these men drink their way through bars, brothels and train carriages, who is
guiding who? Only as they reluctantly approach the blind man's destination, and
a stifled love affair, does the purpose of the trip become tragically clear.
The inspiration for two acclaimed films, Scent of a Woman is a lyrical
exploration of regret, defiance, and what it really means to see.
