Leda, a university professor who has been divorced for some time, is entirely devoted to her daughters and her work. However, when the two girls leave to live with their father in Canada, Leda, instead of feeling sad, suddenly feels free. Her life now seems easier.
She decides to go on vacation to a seaside village in Southern Italy. After the first carefree days, her encounter with the members of a "noisy" family from Naples will bring forth memories of difficult decisions and their consequences for herself and her family...
