Plot
In a grammar school in the outskirts of Rome comes on the last day of school before the summer holidays. Professor Vivaldi, Italian literature teacher, before the end bitterly remembers what happened in that year and he wonders him what will happen to those young students that he cared for as a children from their first day of school. But they've paid off him in a somewhat offensive, given that, as the professor has noted, today's youth are in most cases changed, drifters and without a sense of civic duty.
