Marcello Mastroianni and Jeanne Moreau star in this drama directed by Michaelangelo Antonioni which depicts one day and night in the lives of a novelist and his wife. As Giovanni Pontano (Mastroianni) celebrates the publication of his latest book, he and his wife Lidia (Moreau) visit a seriously ill friend in hospital. From there they progress to a book signing for Giovanni and later a party but Lidia remains aloof.
