One day, due to a political error, something amazing happens: Peppino is mistakenly elected President of the Italian Republic. He is forced to leave his quiet life to play a role for which he is clearly inadequate, as are his manners; however, his common sense and his spontaneity prove incredibly effective.

Peppino’s joyful madness, his humanity and his disarming honesty in a time of crisis catch the institutions by surprise and win over the disheartened country. However, on the horizon loom conspiracies, diplomatic incidents and seedy political machinations.
