Francesco Piccolo retraces and recounts the whole story of the publication of The Leopard, the sad fate of a writer who will never know what will happen to his book, the political and literary issues, the clashes between writers, the clashes between directors. And he will show some scenes from the film - so closely linked to the novel as to be indicated as one of the exemplary transpositions in the history of cinema - to try to tell what is inside this book that is so powerful and mysterious. An exciting and entertaining story-monologue about an unrepeatable moment in Italian culture.
