Luigi Orsini, a young man from Abruzzo, ends up working as a lifeguard at the "Topolini" beach resort in Trieste almost by chance: no picture-perfect sand, but rocks, wind, and dialect. A comical and affectionate monologue about the encounter between worlds and people, filled with quick witticisms, anecdotes, and intimate reflections: a hymn to the identity and surprising humanity of the most unexpected places.
