In 1817, the great French writer Stendhal came to Italy and was enchanted by the masterpieces of the Renaissance masters in Florence all day long. One day, he visited the Basilica of Santa Croce to see the tombs of Michelangelo, Galileo, and Machiavelli. Just as he stepped out of the church, he suddenly felt dizzy, with his heart racing violently; every step felt like he was about to fall. Doctors diagnosed this as a condition caused by excessive stimulation from frequently admiring art treasures, a rare syndrome triggered by intense aesthetics that would come to be known as “Stendhal Syndrome.” Until today, doctors in Florence still occasionally encounter patients suffering from "Stendhal Syndrome," with severe cases requiring hospitalization for several days. Most of these patients are avid art lovers and connoisseurs, ambitious tourists aiming to soak up the artistic treasures of this Renaissance center city in just a few days, only to be overwhelmed by the continuous visual shocks. However, Italians have a 100% immunity to "Stendhal Syndrome"; for them, the brilliance of the Renaissance is as ubiquitous as air, flowing through their lives from childhood to old age, imbued with the spirit of the genius era of Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael. In the film, the female police officer, just like Stendhal back then, is overwhelmed by the stunning collections of the Uffizi Gallery and faints on the spot. The Florence Police Academy surely doesn't have a psychological testing requirement; otherwise, she wouldn't have graduated. And how would the criminal know about her condition? Perhaps it was a tip-off from Agnito…
