Ključna riječ Cynic

Ambiciozna Njujorčanka Beth putuje u Rim na sestrino vjenčanje, gdje u poznatoj fontani ljubavi pronalazi čarobne kovanice. Neočekivano, njezin potez privlači pažnju nekolicine neobičnih udvarača—trgovca kobasicama, uličnog mađioničara, umjetnika i manekena. Kada se u priču uključi i Nick, šarmantni kum s vjenčanja, Beth počinje sumnjati u to je li njegov interes iskren ili samo rezultat čarolije.

Udaljen od svoje porodice i okružen fragmentima svojih sećanja, Albert (Ivo Barisic), starac u kolicima, često gleda kroz prozor i nema puno kontakata sa stvarnošću osim sa svojom negovateljicom Idom (Marjuta Slamic).
