Life smiles at Dino Fabrizzi,a cool 42-year-old Italian. Not only is he the most successful salesman at The Maserati dealership in Nice but he has had a steady relationship with Hélène, who is beginning to contemplate marriage. To crown it all he is nearly certain to land a senior position at the dealership. But there is a tiny wee problem. The funny Italian... is not Italian at all! His real name is Mourad and he is actually of Algerian origin. So, when, to please his father (who does not know his son pretends to be Italian), he promises him to celebrate Ramadan, he is bound to get into serious trouble.
