Two naive friends in their forties flee from a small town in Southern Italy and find themselves catapulted into Northern Europe.
They will, for the first time, understand what feeling alive and happy means.
Through a series of surprising adventures and with the help of a woman, they will overcome their fears and inhibitions, they will discover the joy of life, affection and even love, becoming part of a bizarre but also reassuring ‘modern family’ with this woman.
