Synopsis

In the vibrant setting of mid-20th century Fucecchio, near the enchanting city of Florence, chaos ensues when the wealthy antique dealer Buoso Donati passes away. His bed is surrounded by relatives putting on a show of grief, masks barely concealing their panic. Their fear? The entire fortune has been left to a monastery. Desperation grips them as they frantically search for the will, their hopes pinned on reclaiming their rightful inheritance.

Hope arrives in the form of young Riniccio, Donati’s cunning nephew, who discovers the will. Yet, he holds it hostage, demanding permission to marry Lauretta, the daughter of the notorious local figure, Gianni Schicchi. The family reluctantly agrees, only to confirm their worst fears: the monks will indeed inherit everything. In an audacious twist, Riniccio suggests enlisting the help of Schicchi, to the family's chagrin.

Enter Gianni Schicchi, accompanied by his daughter, with a bold and daring plan. He proposes a charade—to masquerade as the deceased and manipulate the will with the help of a doctor and notary. But as the plot thickens, the question arises: has Schicchi outsmarted himself, or will his cunning lead to an unexpected triumph? The stage is set for a comedic whirlwind where fortunes hang in the balance and nothing is truly as it seems.
