Delia (Paola Cortellesi) is the wife of Ivano and mother of three. Wife and mother. She finds it only natural that these two roles define her. It is the mid-1940s in Rome, and this is an ordinary family living in a city that struggles to find a balance between the positive momentum triggered by the Liberation and the misery the war left in its aftermath.

00:49Because my daughter is marrying a gentleman.
00:51Not a piece of shit like you.
00:52The miserable ones.
00:54If I think that here in Medellin there won't be another woman to enter this house.
00:58I've been coming here every morning for 30 years.
01:00I got distracted for a moment and that girl stole you.
01:04What did they teach you at school?

01:42Think of Marcella.
01:44She's probably crazy.
01:51Where are you going?
01:52Where are you going?
01:53Where are you going?
01:55Why are you being treated like this?
01:57What do you mean? How do I understand?
02:02I'll tell you if I have time.
02:04When are you leaving?
02:07We'll see.
