Plot:
In bustling Naples, retired Professor Bellavista's days revolve around his deep-rooted love for ancient Greek philosophy and thought. He enthusiastically imparts these lessons upon his friends, a group of impoverished locals who eagerly listen to the wisdom he shares in his luxurious apartment. However, the tranquility of Professor Bellavista's building is soon disrupted by the arrival of a Milanese director. This sudden change introduces an interesting contrast between the laid-back Neapolitan lifestyle - characterized by their "philosophy of pleasure and delay" - and the strict, punctual nature of Northern Italians. The unfolding events not only challenge the professor's belief system but also highlight the cultural divide between the south and north of Italy.
