==Plot==
The film is based on the stories of [[Domenico Starnone]], one of the most famous writers of stories of Italy's students. At a high school in the outskirts of [[Rome]], the teachers are preparing the ballots by the end of the school year. Now that is the last day of school before the summer holidays the students are very worried, especially those of the first year (the class IV D), who did nothing but play and have fun throughout the year during the lessons. As if that were not enough, given that in [[Italy]] there are no funds for schools and education in general, a violent storm has brought down the roof of the school, destroying the entire library. The headmaster, a man with rough and instincts of mothers, is not going to do anything to provide at any time and tries to escape the topic. The other professors of the grammar school are quite unbalanced and picturesque. There is Professor Vivaldi, teacher of Italian literature, which would reward as always all pupils, including those with serious gaps, to give them one more chance, then there is the vice professor Sperone, a teacher of science and mathematics, which uses extremely strict and upright behavior towards the new generation of students. He hates everyone and believed to have happened to teach in a school of ignorant with no future. As a result there is Professor Majello, philosophy teacher, secretly in love Vivaldi although he already had a husband and a child. Is secretly in love with her also professor Sperone. There is also the rpofessore French-language uon man moralist tradition of nineteenth-century, strict and racist, who believes that he and the boys studying in Italy are almost all ignorant and only good to work in the countryside. Not to mention the teacher of English, a woman with a phobia of sharp objects, who is afraid of all adolescents of the new generation: extremely rude, violent and uncaring. Now that the polls, due to the collapse of the roof, you have to play in the gym, even the students of IV D are very afraid and just trust in the help of Professor Vivaldi. In fact, everyone is sure that he will go all the shortcomings in discrete votes. While the teachers are starting to take this battle of the votes, Professor Vivaldi begins to remember all the most important moments of that past school with the class IV D between queries and school trips to [[Verona]] and [[Turin]].
