Angela is fifty years old, has two children, a passion for the Harmony sisters, and a life that seems to be all mapped out.
That is, until her husband runs off with a younger woman, leaving her penniless, jobless, and with a future she has to rebuild from scratch.
After a string of disastrous job interviews and a night job as a cleaning lady, Angela meets three unlikely companions in misfortune: a beautiful, resourceful African girl, an impersonator of famous people convinced he’s a misunderstood genius, and a precarious creative type capable of faking anything… except his own success.
When Angela discovers that talent isn’t enough and that everyone in the world seems to have a connection, she decides to get one of her own.
Too bad it’s completely made up.
Amid improbable phone calls, compromising photo montages, politicians, officials, contracts, ever-bigger lies, and suitors who are anything but disinterested, Angela finds herself caught up in a whirlwind of irresistible misunderstandings that will take her much further than she ever imagined.
A brilliant and irreverent comedy about work, second chances, and the all-Italian art of getting by.
Because sometimes the most important recommendation is the one we learn to give ourselves.
Who do you know?
An opportunity. A colossal lie. A disaster waiting to happen... or maybe not?
