A village in the mountains in Trentino is repopulated by nine Ethiopian children, all adopted by the same couple, who also adopt three adults with problems: an Italian or perhaps even a world record. Two of the nine children, Yema and Neka, run, win and beat other records. They are children of the African tableland, capable of running fast and light, almost without tiring. In parallel, these two new Italians tell their story and that of their extraordinary family.
