Giovanna has taken an infatuation with a film actor who has a bald head as a particular sign. The star needs a person to help him deal with the correspondence of his numerous admirers. Giovanna doesn't think twice and, disguising herself as a man, she gets hired as a typist for her secretary. The actor decides to replace his old harpist; the young musician Marcella shows up at the announcement, but the place is reserved for men only. She too decides to dress up as a man and gets the job.[1]
