Orlando is disillusioned, lazy man who lives day-to-day on the banks of the Po river. The 2012 earthquake forces him to take control over his life again, to care for his niece, to deal with an old love and, above all, to get his old band together. He ends up rediscovering the beauty of sharing life with other people. A tender comedy on a young man and his overwhelming will to get back in the game, amid balere (dance halls), poplar forests, and the shores of the great river.
