He is a physics professor who believes there is a logical explanation behind all our behaviour. They meet again, they end up in bed together. Then they separate again. Marco is engaged to Pilar, with whom he is about to move in together, Anna lives with Tullia. But their destiny is to be together. Over the years, their couple holds a balance, at times stable, at times very precarious. Misunderstandings, escapes, clashes, and things left unsaid emerge. But also, moments of intense happiness. Meanwhile, time passes, and they too change.
