A 1970 Italian TV comedy where bureaucracy meets chaos — and nobody's wearing pants, metaphorically.
Acting
Ugo Bologna's sweaty desperation as Livergin carries the whole farce.
Production
Stagy TV-play constraints become accidental Brechtian charm.
Director
Lidia C. Ripandelli
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Ernesto Calindri directed AND acted as Rasanville, pulling double duty in this rare TV-play preservation.
Based on Eugène Labiche's 1845 French play, this adaptation relocates the satire to 1970s Italy where bureaucratic absurdity never went out of style.
