Tuscany, June 1996. Levante Quarini (
Leonardo Pieraccioni) is a young accountant who lives a routine life and has unhappy relationships with women. He lives with his father Osvaldo (Sergio Forconi), his brother Libero (
Massimo Ceccherini) and his lesbian sister Selvaggia (Barbara Enrichi) on a lonely residence surrounded by corn fields. His only friend is his grandfather Gino (voiced by
Mario Monicelli), who only communicates by shouting out of his window. They are far from the major roads and signs are far and scarce, but that is not a problem since the dirt roads are used usually only by the locals who know them well. On an apparent everyday evening a sign pointing to a nearby agritourism falls and a bus with a group of
flamenco dancers, due to town for a recital, gets lost. They cannot find their way to the agritourism, which cancels their bookings when they see no one coming to claim them. The group has no chance but to stop at the Quarini residence to spend the night. As they stay there, Levante falls in love with lead dancer Caterina (
Lorena Forteza), who unfortunately is stuck in a turbulent relationship with her boyfriend Alejandro (Alessio Caruso). At the same time, Selvaggia starts a dalliance with another dancer, Penelope (
Natalia Estrada). The group is forced to return to Spain when the tour is cancelled. During a farewell dinner in
Florence, the evening is disrupted by Levante's date Carlina (
Tosca D'Aquino), the town's herbalist, who gets drunk and embarasses herself and Levante, as well as by a jealous Isabella (Benedetta Mazzini), Selvaggia's employer and on-and-off girlfriend. Back in the hotel, Caterina and Alejandro fight and break up, so Levante brings her on a nighttime walk across the city. They acknowledge their mutual attraction and kiss, but the morning after Caterina has to leave Italy, despite Levante's pleas. One year later, Levante moves to Spain to be with Caterina. They have a son, who they name Gino, after Levante's grandfather, who died in the interim. ==Cast==
