Dante has a great relationship with his girlfriend, Alice. Not so much with time, though. Absorbed as he is by his many engagements, he's always running late, and he's haunted by a feeling that life is quickly slipping away. A feeling that suddenly comes real on the day of his 40th birthday, when he starts to skip a year each day and loses control of his life. One day at a time is funny, moving, and romantic. It's a comedy about that extravagant adventure that we insist on calling time.
