In the town of Amantea, Italy, when Rita finds out that she has very little time left to live, her main concern is not about dying. Instead, she is overcome with worry about her son Gianni, who, at 40, has a heart of gold but is socially awkward and still lives at home. Rita enlists the help of Daniela, a newcomer to town who is recently divorced and has sworn off men altogether. Daniela agrees to become a kind of dating coach for Gianni, and that's when things get complicated.
