The Cesaronis — Season 1, Episode 17: All'ombra del Colosseo

Episode synopsis

Gabriella, upset by Augusto's abandonment, shows up at the Cesaroni house accompanied by a fortune teller, who instills in Ezio the doubt that Walter is not really his son. After undergoing a medical test, which shows he is sterile, the mechanic is convinced that the father of his son is Giulio. Luckily, Stefania manages to clarify the matter.

About The Cesaronis

Giulio is a widower, struggling to raise three sons, Marco, Rudi, and Mimmo, as best he can. He lives in Rome's working-class Garbatella neighborhood and runs a wine shop with his two brothers. Lucia, meanwhile, comes from Milan's middle-class background; she's divorced and trying to rebuild her life with her two daughters, Eva and Alice. The two meet by chance and recognize each other: they had a fling as teenagers, many years earlier. Yet first love is never forgotten, and so Giulio and Lucia find themselves together again. Their meeting, however, changes not only the lives of a man and a woman, but also those of two families as different as could be. Two families who find themselves living under the same roof without even having had the time to get to know each other well.
