Garibaldi's Lovers

Leo is a widowed plumber who struggles daily to raise his two adolescent children, Elia and Maddalena, dividing himself between his job and home duties. Meanwhile the ghost of his extravagant and lovely wife, Teresa, appears to him every night. Diana is a penniless artist who, while waiting for the chance of her life, has a hard time paying the rent. Her landlord is Amanzio, an eccentric man who has left his job for a new lifestyle, and who, in one of his crusades, meets Elia, with whom he embarks on a bizarre friendship. All these characters' paths intertwine, giving each other hope for a different future, in a city emblematic of our times.
