Plot
Gepy is a famous host of a very popular Italian talk show in Rome. On the talk show, in which the serious problems of the Italians of the lower middle class are (trivially) analyzed, one day a disabled girl who is forced in a wheelchair is invited to participate. The young girl named Arianna immediately discovers the careless manner that Gepy uses to analyze the problems of the participants, because he almost uses them as puppets to advertise himself. When she has the courage to put a bad light on the character of Gepy, the audience immediately falls and the program closes. Gepy gets fired. But fate between him and Arianna is yet to be fulfilled.
