Fifty-year-old, Sardinian-born Silvio – a lover of jazz music and karaoke shows – manages the “Stella d’Oro” a restaurant-cum-lodging. Built on the Swiss side of Lake Maggiore more than a hundred years ago, the place has been accommodating less and less tourists, and a few asylum seekers. But its days are numbered: it is threatened by a property restoration project for a new private housing estate. Its few remaining days depict the passing of life in a place of encounter for the stories and dreams of people coming from different locations and cultures.

Silvio, 50 anni di origine sarda, amante della musica jazz e del karaoke, è il gerente della “Stella d’Oro”, un ristorante con alloggio costruito più di 100 anni fa sulle sponde svizzere del Lago Maggiore. Da qualche tempo la struttura ospita, oltre ai sempre più rari turisti, anche dei richiedenti l’asilo. L’edificio ha però i giorni contati, minacciato da un progetto edilizio per un nuovo complesso residenziale. Nell’attesa, i giorni che rimangono sono segnati dallo scorrere della vita, in un luogo dove s’incrociano storie e sogni di persone di culture e origini diverse.
