Plot

Gregorio, his brother Vanni and their sister Livia have progressively lost contact with each others. Vanni and Livia have found success in their artistic career, along the footsteps of their father, a famous sculptor. Gregorio instead seems to lead a more borderline life, as a DJ, party organizer, and counter-culture musician of limited following. The sudden disappearance of their father brings them back together, as they try to figure out what may have happened, and to locate the old man. In their search for clues, they revisit some of the places where they had spent their childhood together. Along this path in their memories and the related attempts to figure out the few hints left by their father, they discover that they share in their adulthood more than they had thought.
