The honourable Mario Agosti, an upright politician, has a twin brother, Filippo, a swindler and lifer, the real black sheep of the family. Passing himself off as his illustrious brother, Filippo comes into contact with the world of politics and finance and is not slow to profit from the powerful characters with whom he makes acquaintances. Politicians and financiers, moreover, fascinated by the adventurer’s spirit of initiative and practicality, do not hesitate to entrust him with important assignments. When Filippo, using dubious means, manages to conclude an important agreement with an African head of state regarding the exploitation of some uranium mines, a group of politicians decide to replace his too honest brother forever. Filippo thus becomes the Honourable Mario Agosti, while Mario, who stubbornly maintains his true identity, is admitted to an asylum.
