Giancarlo Mangiapane is thirty years old and has one single dream: to become a great actor. However, the important roles aren't coming, so Giancarlo ends up acting in his everyday life.

When he discovers that his roommate is also preparing for the same role, a rivalry is born that begins to obsess him.
