Soon Patty, Plinio’s seventy-year-old mother, will join the family.
To complete the bitter/tragicomic tableau there are Cesare, that will soon grow fond, in a tender and morbid way, of the problematic Igor; Mosquito, an aspiring actor prisoner forced into community services; Mohamed, a university teacher in Libano and an underpaid rider in Italy.
