During the fascist occupation, when the use of the Slovenian language was forbidden, a Slovenian married couple decided to teach their son only the Italian language. The son grew up as an Italian citizen in Italy. When getting old, however, the mother became ill, slipped into regression and forgot everything but the most deeply rooted memories. She also forgot the Italian language for that reason and spoke to her son in her native language, which her son did not understand. The film is based on a true story, one of the many that occurred in Trieste and its surroundings after the Italian conquering of this territory at the end of World War One.
