In a respectable suburb made up of row houses, Luca Attorre — a freelance journalist who struggles to get his features published in the papers — is unable to maintain Susi, a ballerina reduced to teaching dance to overweight women, and Lucilla, their quiet and imaginative six-year- old daughter who suffers from severe bronchial asthma. They are helped economically by Pierpaolo, Luca’s seventeen-year-old son from a previous relationship. Pierpaolo lives in an Art Nouveau house with his mother and grandfather, an important trial lawyer of cases linked to politics who rakes in several million euros a year. In the setting of a magnificent and incomprehensible Rome, both a good mother and a bad one, Mary Ann, a deeply Catholic student of art history from Ireland, au pair for the little Lucilla, is caught in the middle.

Set within a household living on the outskirts of Rome, this movie explores the complexities of family life, complicated by the arrival of an attractive au pair. Despite a laboured narrative, the performance of the leading actresses is compelling, especially due to the development of their characters. Whilst the plot's reliance on coincidence may be criticised, the movie offers a melancholic view of the challenges of modern life and a search for a connection. Family viewing may not always be appropriate. Indeed, in one scene, Roisin O'Donovan's hairy vagina is clearly visible as she exits the shower.
