Filippo is a classic “good guy” - faithful fiancee to Luisa, an impeccable ethical lawyer, and a generous man. Is it possible to be so perfect? Yes, if you have a conscience like Otto that controls your every move. One day, however, Otto arrives late at his workstation in the "Other World" and discovers that, in a few minutes, Filippo has turned his entire life upside down. In that short time, he met Valentina, a girl who strikes a chord with him and pushes him to throw away his wedding and his reputation as a good guy. Otto is in trouble, and he must fix things before the Higher Consciences notice, so he decides to face Filippo in person by falling to Earth...
