SYNOPSIS

Mid-thirties and still single (certainly not by choice), Alice is working at a small television network in a job with limited upward mobility, despite often being the most competent person in the room. To add insult to injury, her ex-boyfriend Carlo is getting married and about to become a father. And as if that weren't enough, in the small television production company she works for, a new charming and mysterious creative director, Davide, arrives to put everyone to the test. Alice's life begins to change when she meets Tio, an actor on the network's flagship soap opera and self-professed astrological guru, who will soon become her personal "astrological guide for broken hearts".
