A book he has written is published and he is invited onto a talk show called La Vita Altrui - Other People's Lives - hosted by Valeria (Giusi Cataldo) an ambitious young journalist and daughter of Giovanni (Renato De Carmine), a lawyer. Giovanni has a client on trial for corruption and this has negative effects both on Valeria's career and the ratings of her show.
