It is the story of a friendship between different generations, different nationalities and experiences of different life. Libero is a keen used book seller and Essien is a kid immigrant who has lived in Italy for a few years. The friendship between the two passes through the books that Libero lends to Essien and the complicity between them grows parallel to the emotions that each of these novels can give. Essien meets the West through his literature, Free brings to fulfill the meaning of his name by trying to make out of Essien a free man. Life, with his commandments, will have an ending melancholy, but nothing is lost where there is complicity and affection.
