On an August evening in 1996, in the house in Ventotene where the journalist Sandro Molino spent his holidays, his partner Cecilia revealed to him that she was pregnant.
Today AltieroMolino is a twenty-six-year-old digital entrepreneur and returns to Ventotene with her photomodel husband to gather old friends around her ailing father and give him one last holiday.
She didn't expect to find the island in turmoil for the wedding of Sabry Mazzalupi with her boyfriend Cesare: the little girl, clumsy daughter of the Roman shopkeeper Ruggero, has become a web celebrity and her wedding is a social event that attracts the media and also mysterious emissaries of the new Political power.
Two tribes of holidaymakers, two apparently irreconcilable Italys, destined to meet again on August 15th, for a definitive challenge this time.
