Synopsis
In the 18th century, a young man named Meo (Paolo Ferrari) is sold to the Vatican to serve as a member of the choir. Traditionally, Vatican choir members are castrated to preserve their high voices, but Meo bribes his way out of the procedure. Taking advantage of his unique biological status within the choir, he seduces the wives of wealthy Vatican workers. But, when a woman (Anouk Aimée) becomes pregnant, he'll have to undergo the dreaded operation to secure his alibi.
