Plot
In Italy, in the 1950s, the lives of five families intersect. Vincenzo Corallo is a widowed tailor who has no control over his teenager daughter, Marcella, who skips school to go with her boyfriend, Sandro Bacci, to watch trials. Vincenzo's son, Carlo, is the master of the family who can't stand his sister's bad manners and wants to put her back on the right track.
At the Baccis, the father, Vittorio, has problems with his eldest son, Vezio.
In the same building, Guido and Giula Blasi are expecting their first child. Anxious, Guido contacts a nurse, Ines Santarelli, who offers him injections for his pregnant wife.
Ines Santarelli, married to a zookeeper, is the overworked mother of five children. She entrusts a sick son of theirs to her sister Rita, happy to welcome him, because she cannot have children with her husband Cesare.
