Facing an old billiard table, yet another game of "L'Otto Nero"  between Gaetano, a quite disreputable individual, and  "O'Masto", house and game master, gets charged with tension  when the boss grandson Tonino starts recounting how his  girlfriend’s family has recently experienced the murder of a  relative.  What could come across as a classic and lighthearted game of  pool turns into something else, unveiling past grievances and  long-buried suffering.
