About

Two brothers, their wives and their teenage children meet for dinner as serious trouble involving the children changes the parents' relationships.

Paolo (Luigi Lo Cascio) is a paediatrician at a busy hospital in Rome. His wife Chiara (Giovanna Mezzogiorno) works as a guide at the Ara Pacis Museum, and their son Michele (Jacopo Olmo Antinori) is sixteen. Paolo's brother Massimo (Alessandro Gassmann) is a lawyer with a busy practice; his daughter Benedetta (Rosabell Laurenti Sellers) is the same age as Michele. The two brothers and their wives meet regularly for dinner at the same restaurant. On the surface both families have everything, but tensions lie beneath. When the children get into serious trouble together, the relationships between the parents and among each other change.
