The official synopsis reads:
Based on the real-life rise of Riccardo Schicchi’s groundbreaking erotic agency Diva Futura, the film dives into Italy’s 1980s–1990s sexual revolution. What began as a celebration of free love transformed into a national sensation, turning Ilona Staller (Cicciolina) and Moana Pozzi into cultural icons—one becoming a Member of Parliament and the other a mayoral candidate.
