The day his wife suddenly bursts into tears in the kitchen saying that perhaps she does not like men, Glauco Revelli feels a small apocalypse. A forty-year-old chef at a celebrated restaurant and father of a three-year-old girl, he sets out to find the truth about himself as a man. He looks back over everything: entering adulthood, falling in love, building a family, the birth of his daughter and the work of caring for her, his wife's withdrawal of love after the birth, and the fierce return of the demons of sex, in a story of marriage, love and its loss, and of learning to be a father.
