The Cantone family is gathering for a dinner at which the patriarch Vincenzo will formally hand over the running of the family’s pasta business to his two sons, Antonio and Tommaso. Unfortunately for their father's plans both sons don't want to take over the business, triggering a crisis which stops Tommaso from making a similar announcement. There follows a wave of comic and unexpected events, in which self-fulfilment struggles with social propriety and family commitment. We also learn that grandmother  had similar problems in her past.
