The story follows Giuliano, whose life has improved thanks to his working from home, but his colleagues’ poor performance threatens to force everyone back to the office. Meanwhile, he and his wife, Laura, are expecting a second child and are looking for a bigger home. As Laura makes up her mind about a controversial job offer, Giuliano’s co-workers turn their flat into a makeshift office, rekindling their efficiency and organisation. Amid intrusive co-workers and domestic chaos, Giuliano will have to find creative solutions to save his job, his family and the dream of a new home.

Giulia is constantly torn between the need to feel at home and be loved and a wild desire for freedom. One day she finds herself homeless and begins, in her own crazy way, to seek shelter and her own place in the world. Between an illusory desire for motherhood and ways to make ends meet, she spends the hottest days of a torrid Roman summer surrounded by elusive characters with empty lives, yet pure and wonderful like her. In a limbo made up of nothing (and everything), Giulia understands that it is up to her to decide how to live, or not to live, her own life.
