A love story – or rather, a story about the evolution of love. After five decades of marriage, Aldo and Gabriella are going through a crisis. Those young people who were passionate about each other in the ’50s, who swore to love and accompany each other until the end of their days, are no longer the same. Their personalities, interests, and ways of seeing and understanding the world have changed, and they begin to wonder why they are still together. Aldo and Gabriella’s story – told with humour, distance, and scepticism – makes us face the inevitable question: is love everlasting?
