Giovanni Diotallevi ha sedici anni quando suo padre gli comunica la grande notizia. Ha ottenuto per lui un colloquio con un gerarca, una persona importante. Se saprà fargli una buona impressione, per Giovanni si apriranno le porte del meraviglioso luogo che il Duce ha voluto costruire in fondo alla Tuscolana, una piccola metropoli destinata a creare pellicole che incanteranno il mondo intero.

Called the most promising artist of his generation, handsome, modest, and affectionate, Richard Dadd rubbed shoulders with the great luminaries of the Victorian Age. He grew up along the Medway with Charles Dickens and studied at the Royal Academy Schools under the brilliant and eccentric J. M. W. Turner. Based on Dadd’s tragic true story, Mad Richard follows the young artist as he develops his craft, contemplates the nature of art and fame - as he watches Dickens navigate those tricky waters - and ultimately finds himself imprisoned in Bedlam for murder, committed as criminally insane.
