La historia de cuatro amigos Giulio, Gemma, Paolo, Riccardo, contada durante cuarenta años, desde 1980 hasta la actualidad, desde la adolescencia hasta la edad adulta. Sus esperanzas, sus decepciones, sus aciertos y fracasos son el entrelazamiento de una gran historia de amistad y amor a través de la cual también se cuentan Italia y los italianos. Un gran fresco que dice quiénes somos, de dónde venimos y también a dónde irán y quiénes serán nuestros hijos. Es el gran círculo de la vida que se repite con la misma dinámica a pesar de que en el fondo pasan años e incluso períodos diferentes.
Well-known writer Ettore takes his family on a mountain chalet getaway for his birthday, in an effort to create a bond between his two sons, Claudio and Giulio, and his second wife, Margherita. The group is also joined by Margherita's brother, Claudio's girlfriend, a Ukraininan cook and her daughter. When an internet outage strikes, a series of exciting adventures ensues.
The Tucci family discovers that they have not really lost all their money and, refusing to pay Italian taxes, decides to turn Torresecca into a tax haven, relying on a post-Italian unification bureaucratic oversight.
The "Tucci" are a poor Italian family living in a small village in Lazio. Father, mother, a conceited daughter and a genius son, forced to pretend being stupid to keep up with the family. One day something unexpected happens: the family wins one hundred million Euros. Excited, they decide to keep the winning a secret, but as soon as a single word slips out from the mouth of the householder, they only have one choice to avoid being persecuted by friends and acquaintances: run away. They leave at night, heading to Milan. They will realize as soon as they arrive that today's rich people behaves very differently from the past, and being rich has become a real bother... this discovery will make things way different from what Tuccis' expected.
