PLOT
Dino Versini gets permission from the judge to spend one day a week with the child. So, punctually, on Thursdays, Dino goes to pick up Robertino in his blazing spider, anxious to make a good impression on him, to win him over and hide from his childish eyes, the failure of his existence. His swaggering ways, his high-ranking friendships, however, do not convince the child. Thus, after a failed trip to the seaside, during which Dino is abandoned by his lover, and a visit to his grandmother's house, an encounter with an industrialist destroys the father's already shaky reputation. At the end of the day, having returned his son to his ex-wife, Dino has only to telephone his mistress to ask to be forgiven.
