The plot:

The life of Partenope, which is called like her city, but is neither a mermaid nor a myth. From 1950, when he was born, until today.

Inside her, the entire long repertoire of existence: the carefreeness and its fainting, the classic beauty and its inexorable change, the useless and impossible loves, the stale flirtations and the dizziness of love at first sight, the kisses in the nights of Capri, the flashes of happiness and persistent pain, real fathers and invented ones, the end of things, new beginnings.

The others, experienced, observed, loved, men and women, their melancholic drifts, their slightly dejected eyes, their impatience, the loss of hope of being able to laugh once again for a distinguished man who stumbles and falls on a street in the center. Always in the company of the passing of time, this very faithful boyfriend. And of Naples, which enchants, enchants, screams, laughs and then knows how to hurt you.
