Giulia is an attractive, self-confident young woman. She works for her father Lorenzo in the family-owned Trattoria da Lorenzo in Hamburg's Neustadt district. The trattoria is the business premises, meeting place and living room of the extended Italian family, which also includes Giulia's cousins Gino and Luca. Francesco - "the beautiful Francesco" - is not related to Lorenzo, but is nevertheless part of the family. At some point, Giulia had a brief affair with Francesco - since then he has considered himself her fiancé. In addition to the Trattoria da Lorenzo, Giulia's father has another mainstay - Lorenzo takes orders for thefts, which are then carried out by Giulia, Francesco, Gino and Luca. Nothing big, nothing dangerous - a sideline, so to speak.
