Overview
Giulio is a widower, struggling to raise three sons, Marco, Rudi, and Mimmo, as best he can. He lives in Rome's working-class Garbatella neighborhood and runs a wine shop with his two brothers. Lucia, meanwhile, comes from Milan's middle-class background; she's divorced and trying to rebuild her life with her two daughters, Eva and Alice. The two meet by chance and recognize each other: they had a fling as teenagers, many years earlier. Yet first love is never forgotten, and so Giulio and Lucia find themselves together again. Their meeting, however, changes not only the lives of a man and a woman, but also those of two families as different as could be. Two families who find themselves living under the same roof without even having had the time to get to know each other well.

Overview
Giulio and Lucia Cesaroni organize the ritual barbecue that marks the end of summer. Among those present are Giulio's inevitable brother, the mechanic Ezio Masetti and his wife Stefania, a friend of Lucia and the principal of the school where they both teach. Obviously Lucia's mother, Gabriella, is also there, while the youngest of the family, Mimmo, observes that this year the doors of middle school are opening for him. For Alice and Rudi, always dog and cat, instead the much more terrifying doors of high school are opening wide! The firstborns Marco and Eva are far away: he studies music in Milan while she is in New York to specialize in journalism and live with her chef boyfriend, Alex. Their friend Walter, son of Stefania and Enzo, is left hanging around Garbatella, drooling over Carlotta, his beautiful girlfriend from the upper neighborhoods. While walking with Rudi, his passion for mechanics leads him to notice a splendid vintage motorcycle that he inadvertently knocks over.
