Alice, 16, lives in a quiet city in Veneto with her mother. Her life as a shy and awkward girl takes a turn when she finds out the father she once believed to be dead, Santo Maria, is actually alive and part of a criminal family.
Santo, Alice's father, tasks her with disposing of the dead body of U' Damerino, but Nonna Lina, Alice's grandmother, and the ruthless Ferraù cousins, are all looking for the deceased man.
Alice helps her father and he promises to help her face the shock of what she's done for him. Nereo and his cousin make a surprising discovery that puts Santo in a difficult position while investigating the Damerino's disappearance.
Alice's situation quickly get worse following the discovery of one of the Damerino's arms, prompting Santo to tell her they must run away with Giuseppina.
Bruce Banner or the Hulk? It's time for Alice to decide who she wants to be - Santo has been left wounded by Nereo, and might not make it. However, despite finally seeing her father's true colors, Alice decides to try to save his life.
Just like in the "The Day After," Alice asks herself what she's willing to do in a post-apocalyptic dystopia. Santo is hiding out at Gabriella's factory.
Charlie's Angels remind Alice that women can do anything. You know why? Well, because it's true. Nereo Ferraù is now closer than ever to discovering Santo's hiding place.
The last move on a Rubik Cube is the hardest one, and Alice has to think carefully if she wants to resolve this brain teaser. Thanks to Alice, her father manages to escape from Nereo.
Do you ever feel like your life is a Japanese cartoon? Alice knows one thing for sure: if it was, it would be awesome. Santo has put Alice in a position where she has everything to lose.
