A Friendly Voice

Original · Una voce amica

Between nightmare and reality, spanning various film genres, the director tells the story of a desperate actor who puts on the role of a "drag queen" in order to survive. This role destroys him because it causes him melancholy, bitterness, frustration. However, the man cannot get rid of it, and despair brings him to the brink of suicide. His father's gun, however, does not help him; it jams. He then resorts to an ad found by chance in the newspaper, "A Friendly Voice," which offers to help those who have come to the point of taking their own lives.
