A fun romantic comedy takes us into the minds of a man and a woman on a first date to reveal the mechanisms that direct our actions.
Lara, around thirty-five years old, is sympathetic, disorganized, creative, independent and naive. She has loved and been disappointed many times in her life, she fell and picked up again. Who knows, but maybe Piero will be the one ... Piero, just over forty, like all of us, has a complicated past and an uncertain future – but at the moment he is embarrassed by the fact that Lara invited him to her home on a first date. But if a man gives up watching an important football match because of an invitation to dinner, it may mean something after all ... our mind is a crowded place – several personalities live in each of us who are in constant conflict. Reasonable, romantic, instinctive, sometimes crazy ... but which one will have the last word?

Zabavna romantična komedija nas odpelje v misli moškega in ženske na prvem zmenku, da bi razkrila mehanizme, ki usmerjajo naša dejanja.
Lara, stara okoli petintrideset let, je simpatična, neorganizirana, ustvarjalna, neodvisna in naivna. V življenju je že večkrat ljubila in bila razočarana, padla je in se spet pobrala. Kdo ve, morda pa bo Piero tisti … Piero, nekaj čez štirideset, ima tako kot vsi mi zapleteno preteklost in negotovo prihodnost – trenutno pa ga spravlja v zadrego dejstvo, da ga je Lara na prvi zmenek povabila kar k sebi domov. A če se moški zaradi vabila na večerjo odpove ogledu pomembne nogometne tekme, to morda vendarle nekaj pomeni … Naš um je natrpan kraj – v vsakem izmed nas živi več osebnosti, ki so v nenehnem konfliktu. Razumne, romantične, instinktivne, včasih nore … Toda katera bo imela zadnjo besedo?
