Aldo Braibanti is een poëet, toneelschrijver en regisseur. Wanneer zijn schoonvader een klacht indient, wordt Aldo in het jaar 1968 tot een celstraf veroordeeld. Zijn partner wordt intussen gedwongen elektroshocktherapie te volgen om hem van zijn homoseksualiteit 'af te helpen'. De anti-homowet zal uiteindelijk in 1981 worden afgeschaft.
Nee, helaas is Il signore delle formiche nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
