A new life seems to open up for elementary school teacher Michele Cortese. After 40 years of teaching in the "Roman jungle", he manages to get himself assigned to the Cesidio Gentile Institute known as Jurico: a school with a single multi-grade class, with children aged 7 to 10, in the heart of the Abruzzo National Park. With the help of vice-principal Agnese and the children, he overcomes his metropolitan inadequacy and becomes one of them. When everything seems to be going well, however, news arrives that the school will close in June due to a lack of enrolments. Thus begins a race against time to avoid closure by any means.
