En italiensk familie

An italian family from the end of the 1960s to the present day. The plot revolves around two brothers, Nicola and Matteo. They share the same dreams, hopes, books and friends until they meet a mentally disturbed young woman, an encounter that helps to shape their lives. Nicola decides to become a psychiatrist while Matteo joins the police force. Their parents, Angelo and Adriana, and their sisters, Giovanna and Francesca, make up the rest of the family. Along with Giulia and Mirelia, the two women who mark Matteo and Nicola's lives, these characters form the core of a story that covers the major events of the last forty years of italian social history and paints the portrait of a generation that, rather than accept the world as it was, tried to make it a better place.
