在这部意粉大英雄片中,华拉里奥29岁，演艺毕业后做过前衞剧，当前依然四围寻找角色，生活上他不是好演员，女朋友相告怀孕他做错反应，试镜硬销诚意导演却看中同行死党，终于一时冲动狄尼路“的士司机”上身，把中国姑娘美美从躁底黑帮窟中拉出来，之后……唔知点做。导演戚罗迪卡劳自觉以华拉里奥表述他那一类人一无所有的心迹，十一天迅速拍毕全片，自比是意粉：我很普通，但懂得炮制的话，可以美味无穷；同一镜头裁减时间的跳接手法自认是功能性，未敢高攀《断了气》，却变成独特喜剧视觉风格，顿成态度与宣言。
Nowadays, four Italian young adults longing to change their lives, yet stuck upon the shelf: Valerio and Kookie, dreaming of their big break, yet still not being independent; Giovanna and Serena, pretending to be adult, yet never having dared to live. Then, the encounter with Mei Mei, a young Chinese prostitute, shines a light on the truth: the gain of one's freedom is, above all, an inside job.
