Real life and TV fiction. The shows mirror life, taking their inspiration from it. Or, at times, vice versa. Arturo Cremisi is the ideal father on a popular TV series. His TV son is blond Federico. On the series, the love between the two is boundless. In real life, they openly compete with one other. Federico's is managed by his mother Barbara, a steely press agent with friends in high places. Life on the set is anything but easy. The one day Mirko, a six year old with frightened, needy eyes, enters Arturo's life. Fiction and reality mix, to the point where Mirko, in a sort of psychological transfer, chooses Arturo as his father.
