 Tennessee Williams and his muse / friend Anna Magnani battle demons -real and imagined- as they make their way through the labyrinth of fame from Rome to Hollywood to New York. Set during the Golden Age and the Dolce Vita era of the 1950s and 1960s. The tumultuous and inspired friendship that Williams and Magnani shared endured 24 years and inspired two Williams masterworks: "The Rose Tattoo" and "Orpheus Descending".
