La Felicita, le bonheur ne coûte rien

Sergio arrive à l'âge des bilans, celui où l'on regarde sa vie, sa compagne, son fils et sa carrière avec un œil critique. Plus le temps de se mentir, c'est la dernière chance d'agir avant qu'il ne soit trop tard. Il étouffe dans sa vie, ne supporte plus ni l'hypocrisie qu'il pratique, ni celle qu'il subit ; il se sent écrasé par le matérialisme, l'argent, son métier d'architecte. Un accident va lui donner l'occasion de tout remettre en cause.

Mirko and Genziano are two 35-year-old brothers who have not seen each other since their mother died in a freak accident in which they were involved—eighteen years ago. Since then, Genziano left to live in the UK and now is a stockbroker; Mirko instead remained in Rome, to stay with their father Marcello, working at the same run-down family shop. When Marcello dies, he leaves a task for the two brothers in his will: he asks them to take, on an old restored roadster, his ashes to the grave of his old mother in a village in Calabria, where the accident happened.
