What might put you off
  • It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1940: an older pace and style.

A young woman teaches commercial writing and makes her students practice by writing letters addressed to an imaginary recipient from Vienna. One day, the love letter the woman writes to this non-existent man is accidentally sent by one of her students –and falls into the hands of a real person.
