17th-century noblewoman Porzia leaves the cloister she was raised in to marry, but an ambush leaves her with only humble coachman Bartolo by her side. While venturing into dangerous and unknown lands, the two grow increasingly close despite their opposite backgrounds.
1939: a Tuscan village awaits the arrival of Il Duce. A dog finds a decomposing fetus. Investigations begin immediately: given the exceptional circumstances, someone must be found responsible.

The relationship with her parents is problematic: his father is lost in alcohol and the future grandmother is becoming a mother for the second time. To complicate things further, the friends who play with her have just signed a contract for a series of concerts in Europe.
