Plot

edit

Fausto Morra is a 50-year old family man, owner of a food-processing plant in Piedmont, Cascina Riva, consisting of hundreds of animals and acres of land. After a car accident, Fausto goes into a coma, waking up after 5 years. During that period, everything has changed: his wife Gloria married his best friend Michele and his plant is on the verge of bankruptcy. Slowly regaining his memories, Fausto realises that his past is vanishing, but he needs to discover the truth hiding behind his own affairs to get his life back. In particular, the disappearance of Paolo Ghilardi, a veterinarian who had accused Fausto of selling counterfeit meat, the night of his accident is shrouded in mystery.[1][2][3][4] Once the case is solved, another mystery surrounds Fausto's family: his son Lorenzo's girlfriend Irene Ghilardi disappears the day before their marriage.[5]
