This is a crazy and surreal story that takes place during the course of an openair lunch. It is the time when Luca, a shy and spacedout twenty-year-old, is officially introduced to the relatives of Prisca, his girlfriend. The atmosphere, is terribly oppressive and rife with formal duties and responsibilities. It sets off in Luca some strange mechanism that makes him reject reality. When he is under the most pressure, Luca suddenly falls asleep. In his sleep, he is persecuted by one recurrent nightmare, a nightmare fated to become more and more real.
