A massive traffic jam grips Rome’s ring highway, lasting over 36 hours. Initially, drivers respond calmly, but as time drags on personal dramas, hysteria, and grotesque incidents emerge. Interwoven vignettes portray the jam as a single narrative, with cars and their occupants reflecting a microcosm of broader human stories within the jam’s universe.
