Two very different families spend their holidays in the same house at the seaside: the aristocratic Castelvecchios, open-minded, eccentric, but quite selfish, and the working-class Petagnas, very tight-knit, and united around solid conservative values. What brought such distant worlds together? Only Tony and Carlo, the two middle-aged heads of the families, know! The unexpected announcement of their engagement will disrupt an apparently ordinary summer and turn the lives of everyone around them upside down.


In Italian with English subtitles. Available only in the US.


UPDATE: The California Department of Public Health announced that starting Dec. 15, everyone will need to wear a face-covering in all indoor public settings, whether you've been vaccinated or not.
