Término o frase en italiano: "in punta di penna"
This is the sentence:

E'nato il cortometraggio 'Vernissage! 1607 Caravaggio', una piccola commedia "in punta di penna" che ha avuto molto successo.

Could this be "a short drama 'on the tip of a brush' which was well received' - or is this too literal?

Thanks!

delicately portrayed
Explicación:
I imagine (without any evidence) that the description wishes to underline the fact that it is not a hard-hitting film, but a light comedy, a "piccola commedia", portrayed with delicacy as one draws with the tip of a pen, rather than with broad brushstrokes
