"One job doesn't get you very far these days. You need two for a life. That's the so-called flexibility that everyone is talking about these days. They do it so that at the end of the day we don't know where we are at. But two paychecks mean two meals, that's all I can think of right now."
Beatrice wants to collect her recently deceased brother's money from his debtors, but nobody takes her seriously as a woman. So she disguises herself as her dead brother in order to get the money she is entitled to. To gain credibility and support, she also hires the servant Truffaldino. However, he has also taken a job with Florindo because he cannot otherwise make ends meet on his salary. What he doesn't know is that Florindo is Beatrice's lover and is on the run because he is said to have killed Beatrice's brother because Beatrice's brother wanted to prevent his relationship with his sister. Chaos and comedy of errors are inevitable...

The Servant of Two Masters

Three women - grandmother, daughter and granddaughter - are sitting together at dinner in a cozy apartment in a European city. They talk about their shopping, the upcoming weekend trip and the school work of the youngest, as if they had always lived here. But they only moved into this house a few months ago, where they are known as the Ukrainian "refugees". They describe themselves more as "temporarily displaced persons".
It seems almost inconceivable that the three of them stormed out of the house under a bomb alert or were stuck in a traffic jam at the gates of Europe, on their way to an uncertain future.
