Alice is on the point of marrying her cousin, Carlo. She asks her fiancé to gather together all their mutual friends from their adolescence for a kind of goodbye to single life. Carlo satisfies her because she is so enthusiastic about the idea, but he does not understand that her desire is not so much a sign of her nostalgia as it is of her uncertainty. So, on the wedding day, Alice is confined to the "vesting" room. Here all the friends that gathered together in a kind of pilgrimage of memories pass by to visit her. However, when the moment to leave for the church comes, the bride does not come down. A surprise is waiting for whoever is coming to look for her.
