Synopsis:

A moderately successful, thirtysomething rocker in dire need of a warm bed and a home-cooked meal returns to his family home in Rimini, only to be faced with a series of crises both large and small in this affectionate family comedy from director Gianni Zanasi. Stefano Nardini (Valerio Mastandrea) is a post-punk guitarist stuck in a strange career limbo; while he isn't exactly an unknown, he wouldn't be considered a household name by any means. When Stefano returns to his childhood home for a momentary reprieve from the rock & roll nightlife, his family welcomes him back with open arms. Unfortunately for Stefano, this retreat will be far from relaxing, since everyone under the roof seems locked into some sort of personal crisis. For starters, once-studious sister Michela (Anita Caprioli) has abandoned her education in favor of working with dolphins, and struggling mother Giuliana (Gisella Burinato) is taking self-help classes from a loopy guru who claims to hold the secrets to a happier life. On the more serious end of things, brother Alberto (Giuseppe Battiston) is locked into a bitter split with his ill-content wife -- a deeply personal woe that is only compounded by the fact that the family factory he runs has sunken deep into debt. When Alberto proves reluctant to divulge the sorry state of the family business to father Walter (Teco Celio), loyal siblings Stefano and Michela do their best to pitch in and set things right.

Comedy. Stefano Nardini has been playing music since he was five years old, first in a music conservatory, then as a fairly successful punk rock star. However those times have passed and he goes back to the family he has not seen in a long time, to think about his life. At home, everything has changed. His father, having suffered a heart attack, now only plays golf. His mother goes to 'sciamanic journey' seminars, Michela his younger sister has left everything behind to go work in an Aquarium for dolphins, and his older brother Alberto works in the family factory and has shouldered the responsibility of keeping the family going. A series of revelations and family discoveries cause Stefano to find himself in the position of taking care of everyone and everything. He finally comes to realise that he also needs to take care of himself.

A portrait of the contemporary Italian province, between Rimini and the hills of Romagna, hovering between traditions and fashions. The vicissitudes of three brothers and their family interweave, and Michela, a peculiar young woman who decides to work in a dolphinarium, preferring the company of animals to the company of men...
