“The face was his... the body was his... but suddenly — hello "Charlie"”
Bolt a British linguist develops a universal language so he's a sudden sensation and receives a Nobel prize. An ambitious diplomat capitalizing on Bolt's celebrity arranges for the U.S. to commission a statue for a London square to honor Bolt's achievement. Bolt's Italian wife a renowned artist sculpts an 18-foot nude of Bolt. In a pique because he's neglected her for years to do his work she gives the statue a spectacular phallus telling Bolt that he wasn't its model. Thinking he's a cuckold Bolt goes on a jealous search for a man matching the statue. The diplomat too wants changes in the statue to protect his conservative image. Can art and love reconcile?
