  Andrea (Lory Del Santo) is a young and naïve nurse from Veneto who is employed by the Roman physician Dr. Filippo Patacchiola (Bombolo). Patacchiola lives with his nymphomaniac wife (Dagmar Lassander), raunchy daughter Marisa (Michela Miti), senile father (Riccardo Billi), mentally retarded son Paolo (Fabio Grossi), and African maid Domenica (Anna Fall) who Patacchiola wants to use as a "manmaker" for his son.
