What happens

The Carnival Is Back or The Carnival Is Here Again (Italian: È tornato carnevale) is a 1937 Italian "white-telephones" comedy film directed by Raffaello Matarazzo and starring Armando Falconi, Clara Tabody and Franco Coop. The film was based on a popular stage play in which Falconi had previously starred. It is now considered a lost film. It was shot at the Cines Studios in Rome and on location in the capital city and around the Gulf of Naples. The film's sets were designed by the art director Gastone Medin.
