Chi Chi Donatelli and Saverio Armandonada meet in the 1930's but don't end up together until the war. They have been friends and co-workers. They are singers/musicians/performers who do a bit together in a traveling show. When they fall for each other, it is he who convinces her. She knows his past and his previous loves...or maybe just affairs. Things start out strong but Saverio (now know by the simpler Tony) stays on the road while Chi Chi stays home with the kids. His various affairs and emotional absence breaks them apart. They still have a professional relationship and Chi Chi cleans up after his next 3 marriages. This is their life story, she still loves him but has become a successful independent woman on her own. I enjoyed Ballerini's narration, he does a good job giving voice to the variety of characters.
