Twenty eight year old Pietro, a lonely soul who works nightshifts in a bakery, has just moved to Rome into a beautiful and crucially low rent apartment. He soon starts noticing objects have been moved and strange noises are coming from empty rooms. It becomes clear that he is not living alone. His initial reaction is to ignore the seven and a half annoying residents, and then tries everything he can to get rid of them, to no avail. Eventually, their forced cohabitation offers Pietro the chance to share his desires, fears and secrets, giving him the confidence he needs to face his new life.
