Set in 1970s Naples, bullied nine year-old Peppino is watching the world around him as his extended dysfunctional family change.

Super-mod brother and sister Titina and Salvatore take the boy under their wings, introducing him to demonstrations and love-ins, whilst caped superhero Gennaro visits Peppino even after being knocked down and killed by the number 12 bus.
