Storyline
Rosario Russo has spent the last fifteen years building a new life for himself in Germany as an accomplished chef and owner of a restaurant and hotel that bear his name. His German wife Renate and son Mathias don't know much about the past Rosario left behind in Naples and don't know who Diego and Edoardo, two Italians that show up at their hotel one day looking for lodging, might be.
It soon becomes clear they represent both a chance for Rosario to heal a part of his past and a threat to the "quiet life" that he has so carefully constructed since he left Italy. He'll soon be faced with the familiar but agonizing question about what is too great a price to pay for your own survival. And also have to reconcile his competing loyalties - between the family he has now and the two he left behind - the one he swore an oath to and the one that is now at his doorstep.
