1975년, 로마의 어느 가톨릭 명문 남고에 재학 중인 세 학생. 이들이 저지른 끔찍한 범죄로 학교와 도시가 충격에 휩싸인다.

Three families go into crisis when their daughters get engaged because they are convinced that their young daughters have all chosen a wrong partner.

Mirko and Manolo are best friends and live in the suburbs of Rome. They both live in poor conditions with their single parents, are still in school and struggle with occasional odd jobs to make ends meet. Together they share dreams of women, of sex and money, of a better life to come. Then, after killing a man in a hit-and-run one night, they get involved with the local mafia and their lives change dramatically.
