Kiss Me Again

In Rome, ten years after the events of The Last Kiss, a new web of relationships tightens around a circle of friends and exes as they edge toward fresh choices that could redefine their lives. At the center is Carlo and Giulia, who are edging toward the end of their long divorce. Giulia, now the primary caregiver for their child, has spent the last three years sharing a home with a man named Simone, watching Carlo pursue a romance with the twenty-five-year-old Anna. The contrast between duty and desire threads through their days, coloring every long dinner, every late-night conversation, and every quiet moment of unresolved tension.

Meanwhile, Paul battles a deepening despair, fueled by tranquillizers, and begins a relationship with Livia, the wife of Hadrian. Hadrian’s own shadow lingers—he has just returned after a lengthy sentence tied to a cocaine shipment from Colombia—adding another layer of strain to a group already crowded with fragile loyalties. The plot widens to show how fragile happiness can be when past mistakes, secrets, and the itch for escape collide with present commitments, especially as Paul’s fragile state ripples out to his friends.

Across town, Marco seems to have a stable home life with Veronica on the surface, but a hidden crisis simmers, intensified by the looming prospect of fatherhood. Alberto, freshly returned from a collegiate trip with friends, still longs to break free from the weight of expectations and the crushing sense that life is moving too fast. Carlo remains haunted by the memory of Giulia, unable to shake the feeling that a moment of true connection could still be possible, even as everyone around him spins toward new transgressions.

A moment of passion changes everything when a new pregnancy arises, and Anna recognizes that the two who sparked it are still in love, choosing to step aside. The affair heats up for [Veronica] as she succumbs to the lure of the young artist Lorenzo, while [Marco] grows irritated by the constant nights spent out with Veronica’s friends, and he begs for honesty and loyalty that seems increasingly out of reach. The emotional tremors ripple through the group as fertility doubts and the fear of unplanned futures tighten their grips on the couples.

As the various threads tighten—trust, betrayal, responsibility, and the longing for something enduring—the story pivots on the decisions each character makes about love and obligation. [Veronica] navigates the tension between passion and commitment, while [Anna] and [Lorenzo] face the consequences of their clandestine bond. The dynamic shifts again when Adriano, who has fallen on hard times, finds himself stepping into a new role: with Adriano no longer employed, the others adjust as he takes over the shop, a quiet testament to the way friendship and family duties blur.

Tragedy enters with a stark final act as [Paul] reaches a breaking point, enacting a dangerous moment of crisis that ends in tragedy. The group gathers at the morgue, confronted by the fragility of life and the price of unspoken truths. The film then pivots to a sobering last image: [Alberto] arriving in Brazil with only €2,300 in his pocket, a small, hopeful smile crossing his face as he stands before the cascading falls—an ending that hints at new beginnings even as it marks the end of this chapter for his circle of friends.
