A choir comedy centered on a driving school in Rome, where two awkward young instructores and a weird bunch of students are linked by the common goal of passing the driving test.
The test is an excuse to look more deeply into the lives and choices of these people; who's diverse ages, cultures, experiences and backgrounds reflect many aspects of contemporary Italian society.
As the comic tale of the "hot" week leading up to the test unfolds, a peculiar destiny transforms it into a nightmare for some and a great opportunity for others.
