Synopsis
A man suffering from amnesia is brought to a police station in Turin after being caught stealing flower pots from a cemetery. Despite his protestations of innocence and lack of memory, he is brutally interrogated and eventually committed to an asylum for the mentally disturbed. When his photograph appears in newspapers, two women claim him as their missing husbands - Mrs. Ballerini and Mrs. Polacich. The man is released into Mrs. Ballerini's care but is later arrested due to Mrs. Polacich's insistence that he is her husband. A courtroom drama ensues as both families fight for his recognition, with various clues suggesting whether the amnesiac has been correctly identified or not. Ultimately, Mrs. Ballerini prevails and she escapes with him to Brazil, where they later have two children recognized by the Vatican.
