A young American studying in Rome gets swept up in the glamorous world
of cinema when he meets a beautiful Italian actress near the end of her
career and an irrepressible American TV star hoping to revive his.
In this romantic and comic story about class, language, and the art of
reinvention, "Nebraska Jack" Rigel is about to quit his Latin studies
program at the Vatican when he suddenly finds himself face-to-face with
the mysterious and ethereal Angelina Amadio, the famous Angel of Rome.
Hired to translate the romantic feelings of the unpredictable former TV
detective Ronnie Tower, Jack must navigate these two forces of nature in
a Rome of late night bars and fancy villas, as he searches for his own
role to play.
