A futuristic fantasy about an eccentric, bored executive who becomes obsessed with a mysterious girl, but she turns out to be an android. Specifically, Mr. Rossi lives in a small town. He works in a large financial company and is considered "unique" by his colleagues because he doesn't own a car and insists on skateboarding to work. One afternoon, from his office window, he catches sight of an intriguing girl. He decides to follow her... a decision that changes his life forever.

Sydne Rome (her real name) plays the Tin Girl here. She originally came from the States were she was born into a wealthy family in Sandusky, Ohio, 1951. Her father was CEO of a very successful Akron area plastics company and he helped establish her in Italy when she decided that she wanted to be in the motion picture business. After starring in numerous films (including Luigi Zampa's MONSTER, STOP CALLING ME BABY! with a very young Jodie Foster, and Rene Clement's BABY SITTER [SCAR TISSUE]) she drifted to Euro television, appearing in numerous projects since the early '80s. In 2013, Ms Rome acquired the rights for Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? and has created the first stage presentation. It premiered in Rome, Italy in 2013 where a successful run has lasted years.
