Set in the multi-ethnic communities on the outskirts of Milan, three teenagers grow up and deal with love, generational conflicts, female emancipation and, above all, power struggles.

Two childhood friends from a tough Milanese suburb—one a low-level drug dealer, the other stuck in a back-breaking, underpaid job—find their bond tested when they both fall for the same girl against a backdrop of escalating social unrest in their neighborhood square.
