Daniela explains the relative pronouns used in forming a relative subordinate clause. She starts out with the explicit kind.

In this lesson, we look at implicit relative subordinate clauses, and how they are introduced. One of their main characteristics is that they use the infinitive of a verb, rather than a conjugated one.

Daniela tells us about comparatives used in subordinate clauses. There are three kinds: majority, minority, and equality.

How Human He Is! is a 2024 biographical film directed by Luca Manfredi, dedicated to the life and career of Paolo Villaggio, portrayed by Genoese actor Enzo Paci. The film chronicles Villaggio's formative years, from his life as an employee in Genoa to his success with the character of Fantozzi, exploring his struggles and the key moments that led him to fame.

Paolo Villaggio's father thinks his son is a slacker so he writes a song about it with his friend. Studying law is not Paolo's favorite activity, so much so that he falls asleep during class.

Paolo amuses everyone with his obituaries, except for Maura whom he would like to make laugh instead. When he goes home for dinner, his parents scold him for how he's behaving at the university.

At the end of the party, the girls award the prize for the most handsome boy at the party but also for the ugliest one, which is won by Paolo. Despite this, Maura wants to clarify that the vote was not unanimous.

Maura seems eager to help Paolo overcome his problems with girls, but he is a tough nut to crack. At home, he dresses up in his father's hat and coat and goes out (over the objections of his mother who is tutoring a child in German).

Paolo starts studying but keeps thinking about Maura. When his brother comes in, he confesses to having fallen in love and wants to surprise the girl by taking her for a drive.
