Fulvio is 79 years old, he worked as an engineer, he designed elevators. He has been working in Switzerland and Holland. Subsequently he became manager of a company in La Spezia and when it took on contracts in Rome he willingly moved to the capital.

His pension allows him to live comfortably, but when his first health problems arose, his nephews advised him to move to a "very good" retirement home outside Rome.

Fulvio was very uncertain and in the end he allowed himself to be convinced, thinking that after the first period of treatment he would recover his energy and return home. Yes, because he had a beautiful house in the Piazza Sempione area. In the same period, his nephews presented a request for administrative support for Fulvio because they thought it would be better to have someone alongside him in financial management and in daily choices. He only learned of this initiative when he received a summons from the Civil Court of Rome. His nephews downplay it and insist that it will be an important help to him. They thought that, knowing their uncle's extravagances, a stranger would be better as a support administrator rather than themselves, to whom their uncle never wanted to listen.

So a lawyer is appointed who suddenly enters his private life, even into the most remote corners.

Well, Fulvio thinks, now I want to assert my rights and I will explain that first of all I want to go home, maybe I will pay a family assistant to help me. So he prepares a nice speech but in the first meeting he doesn't perceive much willingness to listen from the lawyer who, having shown the appointment decree, is in a hurry to have the debit card, the documents and the house keys delivered. Fulvio thinks that perhaps it wasn't the right day, perhaps it was just the first meeting and continues to think that if the judge decided like this it means that this will be the way to assert one's rights and requests.

But after the first meeting Fulvio no longer manages to have the opportunity to speak again with the support administration. He asks the management of the retirement home to call him but they say not to worry because he will show up. Fulvio protests and they tell him to be careful what he says because they would have reported everything to the lawyer. Then he tells everything to his friends who come to visit him every now and then. We don't know how, they manage to talk to the support administrator and, in response, he warns them against continuing to take care of Fulvio and creating false expectations for him. He adds that he doesn't want to take on the responsibility of bringing Fulvio back home and therefore this current situation is the best, obviously best for him.

Fulvio's friends point out to him that he owns a beautiful house where, thanks also to his income, he could live well. The support administrator does not want to listen to reason and reiterates that he is fine as he has already decided. They insist on saying that Fulvio's will is different. The lawyer flies into a rage: “But what will and will, we have to be realistic and then I don't have to account to you for the reasons why I took this decision. I have nothing else to add". Fulvio talks to everyone only about his house, about being able to go out but he is no longer able to talk to his support administrator and never meets him. He cannot understand how it is possible that a stranger, never seen before, can decide everything about him, without listening to his will.
