Andrea finds himself at the worst party of his life, he is there to celebrate Luca, his best friend, who has finally accomplished something: ending his own life.
Luca has committed suicide, and despite Andrea's glass always being full, he is not at a party but rather at a funeral wake.
Both of them grew up in the same small town in the province of Puglia; Andrea is the typical office worker, while Luca filled his life with adolescent ambitions, occasional relationships, and brightly colored shirts, never finding the courage to choose a path. They are both losers.
The wake is attended by a plethora of attendees who have come to pay their emotional respects; Andrea is there too, realizing that to prove to his friend that he has changed, he must be entirely, irreversibly, disrespectfully out of place.
