Plot
Last year of school for the III C of the Gobetti high school in Rome: the events of the boys and girls who have to face the final exams are intertwined with more or less happy loves, shy disputes and small dramas. Lucia, scion of a rich family, but with a generous and rebellious soul, shares with Andrea, who instead comes from a family of modest conditions, the project for a school newspaper. The contents of the file put them in collision with the principal, but they unite the two youngsters, who eventually fall in love. Their relationship, however, is opposed by Lucia's family, who want her to be paired with the stolid but rich Pupo.
