Cetto c’è, senzadubbiamente

In a sun‑drenched corner of southern Italy, the once‑flamboyant former politician Cetto la Qualunque has reinvented himself as a modest entrepreneur living across the border in Germany. His new routine revolves around the bustling household he shares with his supportive partner and their daughter, while his loyal childhood friend Pino remains a constant presence. The contrast between the quiet, suburban life he has built and the chaotic, media‑savvy career he left behind is both comforting and disorienting, setting the tone for a story that mixes farcical humor with a lingering sense of unfinished business.

A sudden, hushed phone call about his elderly aunt’s failing health shatters Cetto’s carefully constructed equilibrium and forces his return to the coastal town of Marina di Sopra. There, the familiar streets and the looming legacy of his family stir memories that had long been sealed away. The revelation that his lineage may be far more intricate than the humble origins he once believed hints at a hidden claim that could ripple through his personal world and the wider community.

Back on Italian soil, the film unfolds amid a whimsical yet sharply satirical landscape where old‑world aristocracy brushes shoulders with modern republican sensibilities. Conversations drift between nostalgic reverence for vanished monarchies and the absurdity of contemporary politics, creating a canvas in which ambition, heritage, and comedy collide. The atmosphere crackles with the possibility that a single, long‑buried secret could upend expectations for everyone caught in Cetto’s orbit.

Against this backdrop, Cetto must navigate the tangled loyalties of his former lover, now a cloistered nun named Carmen La Qualunque, and the fierce devotion of his mother‑figure Madre Petra, whose own desires add another layer of tension. As he grapples with the weight of newfound possibilities, the film teases a journey where personal identity, familial bonds, and the allure of power intertwine, promising a richly layered ride without revealing how the story ultimately resolves.
