An account of the most significant stages in Sophia Loren's career: from Rome to Hollywood, collecting two Academy Awards along the way. The documentary features a moving exclusive interview with Sophia herself and a large swathe of iconographic documentation with images from the Istituto Luce collection and excerpts of her most momentous performances. Finally, a number of interviews with other remarkable figures from Italian cinema (Dino Risi, Mario Monicelli, Lina Wertmuller and Francesco Rosi) contribute to a complete, multi-layered portrait of Italy's most well-known actress around the world, while also making a fitting tribute to a great international performer.
