Luciano De Crescenzo's first film, The Man in the Woods, tells the adventures of Gennaro Bellavista, a Neapolitan philosophy professor. Transferred as HR director at the Alfasud factory in Naples, Dr. Cazzaniga, a Milanese by blood, is greeted with extreme suspicion by his new roommates, until a meeting with our professor breaks the deadlock. Bellavista's pregnant daughter is getting married; her husband is an unemployed architect. Thanks to a broken elevator, Cazzaniga and Bellavista become friends, and the young couple's troubles may be resolved.
