Description: At Totò’s home the water supply suddenly stops. In fact workers in the street are fixing the pipes and meanwhile the water pumps have been shut up. Unaware of the fact, Totò opens all the taps, hoping in vain to get back the water. Then, furious, he decides to go to the Aqueducts Company to protest. But at the very moment he leaves the house, the water returns and floods the house, since he has forgotten to turn off the taps. The video is a copy from the film print held by the Museo Nazionale del Cinema and previously restored by the EYE Filmmuseum: 35 mm, positive, polyester, 140 m, 7’ at 18 fps, black and white, French intertitles, silent.
