Angela and Franca decide to take the dream trip of their lives. They run away from their boring retirement home in Rome and make a daring getaway to fabulous Venice. A hilarious, heartwarming on-the-road adventure when anything can – and does – happen.
Angela is a fallen Duchess who is as outspoken as she is irreverent. Her glorious past is only a dim memory though, since she has lost all her fortune at the races and casino tables.
Franca is from Naples and is honest and open, though sometimes a little naive. She has spent all of her life in her restaurant cooking. The two ladies have been best friends for ages. They are both free, romantic, naughty, bursting with life and crazy ideas. And when they disappear on their surprise escape, the people they thought did not care anymore suddenly realize how incredible they truly are.
