In 1971 Ricky, a 19-year-old youth, is sitting in his living room at home. A collection of records, a saxophone, and the background music testify to his father's passion for jazz. However, Ricky is looking for a new kind of music that is nearer to his times. He sees a Jimi Hendrix concert on television and falls in love with this kind of rock so much that he decides to imitate him, and even achieves a certain success. Twenty years later in 1993, his son Massimo, a 19-year-old youth, is sitting in the same living room as in the opening scene. There is the same passion for music, but the tastes are very different.
