Andreas, un jeune pasteur, arrive dans une banlieue particulièrement grisâtre de Copenhague pour effectuer un remplacement et reprendre en main le temple local. Il loge à l'hôtel, où il engage la conversation avec Jorgen Mortensen, le réceptionniste, qui lui conseille de s'inscrire au cours d'italien pour débutants.
Andreas se rend alors sur place et rencontre une charmante mais fort maladroite vendeuse en pâtisserie, Olympia. La jeune fille est traumatisée par un père outrancier. Elle n'est d'ailleurs pas au bout de ses surprises : à la mort de sa mère, elle découvre que Karen, une coiffeuse un peu inhibée, n'est autre que sa soeur.
D'autres personnes trentenaires interviennent à leur tour, toutes blessées par la vie mais motivées pour apprendre l'italien.

The class serves as a way of bringing these various residents of the town, each of whom is dealing with loss or pain, out of their loneliness and into interactions with other people. When the teacher suffers a heart attack during class and ends up dying, the six classmates hold the class anyway and eventually take a vacation to Italy.

It’s The Italian Job so obviously, I head to Kent in England for the race of a lifetime. But first I have to get ready. So, it’s the Fiorano test track in Italy where I spend a while not getting ready at all. I try the gym but it’s all rubbish so instead, I decide to compare Ferrari’s 458 Italia and the limited edition 599 GTO. On paper, that doesn’t seem fair. But in reality….
