Overview

Enzo and Monica, two engaged thirty-year-olds from the outskirts of Naples, lead a life of routine until Enzo makes a sharp bet at the illegal lottery, thanks to which he wins a trip offered up for grabs by the criminal who runs the game. The journey turns out to be an experience somewhere between comical and traumatic, because Enzo and Monica are like two fish out of water in all the contexts in which they find themselves. Even more traumatic, however, is their return to Naples: their trip was wanted by an American laboratory for an anthropological study, which will transform them, despite themselves, into stars.
