Piero, openly gay and an activist for “alternative” rights, is running as the centre-left candidate for mayor of the northern city of Udine. The current, extremely right-wing mayor builds walls to keep drug dealers and foreigners contained in their neighbourhoods. Adele is a family values moderate (though divorced for being sterile) running as his vice-mayoral candidate. Piero seems to falls in love and even sleeps with her, even though he’s in a long-term relationship with Remo. What will the voters say, the political opponents, his family? And what in the end will his heart say?
