Teo (Adriano Gianinni) is a creative artist for an advertising agency who runs away from everything: his past, his birth family, the beds of the women he spends the night with, and his responsibilities. Work is the only thing he truly loves, and his tablet and mobile phones keep him in constant, obsessive contact with the world. Emma (Valeria Golino), meanwhile, is an osteopath and roams the city with a white walking stick: she lost the power of sight at the age of 16, but has not let her life recede into the darkness; she has come to accept her disability, fully aware that every day is a battle. She separated from her husband not too long ago, and the brilliant and easygoing Teo seems just the right person with whom to indulge in a bit of fun. But for Teo, everything comes about through bets and gambling, and Emma is different from all of the other women he has met so far. A sudden wave of flippancy washes over them, taking them by surprise, but their days of carefree, happy bobbing along grind to a sudden halt. They each go back to their separate lives, but nothing will be like it was before.
