Astolfo, a pensioner who no longer expected anything more from life, is evicted from his apartment in Rome and takes refuge in the old family home, a dilapidated building in a small town in central Italy that had once been a noble palace.
He adjusts to life in the small town, barely gets by,  argues with the mayor, finds an old friend and give refuge to a couple of local misfits like himself.
Then he meets Stefania, a woman of his age, and falls in love. It will be the beginning of a new life, more difficult but also more beautiful, and real…the only kind worth living.
