Build a movie plot around this: In the middle of the day, Sordi chases a young woman into the surf at a beach, and does what to her? Dorean
A:
Antonio "Tony" Sordi [William Campbell] lives in a studio under an old belltower where he spends his time painting, just as his ancestor Erno Sordi did five hundred years ago. The only difference is that Erno Sordi was convicted of conspiring with the devil and was burned at the stake, whereas Antonio Sordi sells his paintings at prices that the local beatniks can only dream about.

It was his lover Melissa who complained to the ecclesiatical council that he had cast a spell on her and captured her soul on his canvas. Melissa stood laughing at him as his body burned.Max [Karl Schanzer], one of the local beatniks, has been experimenting with new artforms. His latest invention, the quantum gun, has his friends excitedly discussing this "formal" method of painting. But when his model, Daisy Allen [Marissa Mathes], disappears and shows up in one of Sordi's newest paintings, Max asks Daisy's sister Donna [Sandra Knight] to pay Sordi a visit and see if she can find out where Daisy has gone. Sordi denies knowing Daisy, of course, and slams the door in Donna's face. As Donna leaves, an old-timer reminds her about...
