The play is a portrait of family ties watched through a magnifying glass. Whilst a theatre company is rehearsing a play, a Sicilian family appears on stage asking to live their drama. They are Characters, who are cast out from a plot based at the beginning of the twentieth century, abandoned by their own author and condemned to a sort of limbo, to the eternal struggle to confirm their identity.
The audience, the actors and the Characters are now brought in a new surreal dimension where reality and fiction blend together.
