Storyline

Bank manager John Valera is a man of the world, a dazzling-looking gentleman from head to toe. Tired of his business, he one day leaves everything to have a rest, leaves his workplace in Berlin and travels incognito to Italy, where he wants to unwind and spend a holiday like never before. As his travel budget starts to shrink more and more, Valera is not reluctant to accept various jobs and earns his living as a jazz trumpeter, servant, chauffeur and assistant to a gang of thieves.
