Piero is a left-wing Latin teacher who writes children’s stories and still hopes to make it in a world in which even children seem to have lost their imagination. He is used to living alone and wears unfashionable clothes, uncaring of what people think of him. His ex-wife, on the other hand, is a right-wing sales woman who lives with a plastic surgeon and, despite possibly being even more superficial than he is, she is extremely practical and lets nothing ever get the upper hand.
