À l'occasion d'une éclipse de Lune qu'ils vont observer depuis la terrasse de leur appartement romain, Eva et Rocco reçoivent à dîner leurs amis de toujours : Bianca et Cosimo, Carlotta et Lele et enfin Peppe, le divorcé de la troupe qui doit leur présenter sa nouvelle copine. Mais Peppe arrive seul, prétextant que son amie est souffrante. À l'apéritif, ils évoquent un couple d'amis récemment séparé à la suite d'une tromperie découverte par un texto.

Omar Ali is a young man living in Battersea in the Wandsworth area of South London, right by the railway station during the mid-1980s. His father, Hussein, once a famous left-wing British Pakistani journalist in Bombay, lives in London but hates Britain's society and its international politics. His dissatisfaction with the world and a family tragedy have led him to sink into alcoholism, so that Omar has to be his carer. By contrast, Omar's paternal uncle Nasser is a successful entrepreneur and an active member of the London Pakistani community. Omar's father asks his uncle to give Omar a job and, after working for a brief time as a car washer in one of his uncle's garages, he is assigned the task of managing a run-down laundrette and turning it into a profitable business.
