Synopsis:
70 year old Gina lives in a resthome. She is anxiously awaiting her grandaughter's marriage when her world falls apart: her daughter feels she shouldn't attend the wedding because of her precarious health. Gina decides to go on her own and upon arrival discovers she is at the wrong church. While resting at a bar, she meets Giacomo, an older man with frisky eyes. Together they go on a search to find the wedding reception but instead they slowly find each other.
