Description: Harassed by creditors, Polidor decides to put an end to his existence. After a first failed attempt, he decides to jump off the roof. So he climbs along the facade of the building, but at the third floor, when he has almost reached the top, a plump girl leaning from the window holds him back, keeping him from going any further. Polidor cannot resist her loving eyes, and gives up instantly his suicidal ideas. The preservation has based on a tinted nitrate positive print preserved by the Museo Nazionale del Cinema in 2008: 35mm, polyester, 165 m, 9' aprox. to 16 fps, Desmetcolor (from original orange-yellow tinted), Italian intertiles.
