The story of two rival families from Milan, one Jewish and the other Catholic, who are competing merchants in 1938 Rome. The Jewish Simeones want to transform their haberdashery into a modern, ready-to-wear store. They are up against their Catholic rival Umberto Melchiorri, who owns an elegant boutique.
