Plot

Two young communist spouses, Mario and Maria Boschi, lead an ordinary life of work: he in the newspaper "L'Unità", she in a haberdashery, a little tense, like many, for the often urged need to reconcile the inexorable work commitments with the care and schedules of two very young children. To disturb the daily routine of the two is the crisis that arises within the local section of their party at the time of the Achille Occhetto's proposal to change name and symbol of the Italian Communist Party. Mario is for the yes, Mary for the no, and political disagreement risks to break the conjugal harmony. This risk is accentuated when in section another Mario makes an unadorned but convinced intervention in favor of the no.^[5]
