WANNA: The Structure of the NETFLIX DOCU . Series
For twenty years, Wanna Marchi was the most popular telephone seller on Italian television. His aggressive style, with which he addresses the audience, is the hallmark of the shows in which he proposes miraculous slimming creams. Throughout the 80s, her image and products went crazy, which made her very rich and famous, along with her only right hand, daughter Stefania. The two go from success to dramatic fall in the early ’90s, when the “Wanna Marchi Empire” collapses and throws them to the curb.
Disaster unleashes the desire for redemption in the two: After selling the illusion of the perfect physical form, they will move on to marketing the one thing no one thought of selling: luck. Slimming and anti-wrinkle creams give way to amulets and blessed numbers that are sold with Master of life Do Nascimento. This amazing money machine later turned into something else: a sensational scam, thanks to an unexpected partner: television.
