Milan, 1956. Ambitious young journalist Oriana Fallaci, fed up with her role as the 'Cinema girl', makes a bet with her editor: if she manages to interview Marilyn Monroe, she will finally have the chance to write about politics.
Oriana gets invited to a party full of Hollywood stars to interview them, but the actors are terrified by the press and would rather give up having fun than end up in the papers. However, she turns her failure into an opportunity.
